#29-Terry Cook dominated Friday’s Power Stroke Diesel 200 at Indianapolis Raceway Park, leading 189 laps and winning the Truck series race by more than a second. Cook, who started on the pole in his Ford, won for the second time in three races and posted a season-high fourth victory. He last won at Loudon on July 20. He led the first 89 laps, then passed #33-Andy Petree, who led 11 laps after not pitting during a caution. Cook regained the lead on Lap 101 and led the rest of the way. #2-Jason Leffler finished second in a Dodge, marking a series-record fifth runner-up finish without a victory. #60-Travis Kvapil avoided a multitruck, last-lap accident to take third in a Chevrolet. #52-Mike Wallace was fourth in a Chevrolet, and #18-Robert Pressley was fifth in a Dodge. Points leader #16-Mike Bliss was running fifth on the last lap when he ran up on a lapped truck, precipitating a five-truck melee that dropped him to 15th place. Three-time Winston Cup champion #17-Darrell Waltrip stepped out of the broadcast booth to make a rare appearance in this series. He avoided the crash to move up to sixth, much to the delight of the crowd. See results at ThatsRacin.com.(8-2-2002)
