Beginning with Saturday’s NASCAR Camping World Truck Series Kentucky 225 at Kentucky Speedway in Sparta, Brian Ickler will be back in the saddle of Kyle Busch Motorsports’ #18 Toyota Tundra for the next two races,. As the 2011 Truck Series season heads down the final six-race stretch, the 26-year-old driver is faced with the task of trying to help the defending Truck Series owners’ champions erase a 33-point deficit in this year’s standings. Ickler has collected five top-five and nine top-10 finishes in 20 career Truck Series starts. Saturday will be the San Diego native’s third start for KBM in 2011. He battled his way back from an early spin to register a hard-fought fourth-place finish in the WinStar World Casino 400k at Texas Motor Speedway in June and posted a 14th-place finish in the Coca-Cola 200 at Iowa Speedway in July. This weekend will be Ickler’s fourth trip to Kentucky Speedway.(Kyle Busch Motorsports PR)(9-27-2011)
