Not only is the University of Northwestern Ohio (UNOH) the title sponsor of the eighth Camping World Truck Series race at Kentucky Speedway this season, the Lima, Ohio-based college is an associate sponsor on Dillon’s #3 Bass Pro Chevrolet. UNOH offers a unique curriculum to young people interested in professional motorsports competition as a career with associate degrees and diploma programs in High Performance Motorsports. This week’s 150-lap event marks Ty Dillon’s second appearance at the Sparta, Ky.-based facility. Dillon made his first career Camping World Truck Series start at the 1.5-mile track in September of last year where he finished 18th after fuel system issues plagued the team in the later stages of the race. Dillon remains third in the 2012 Camping World Truck Series driver championship point standings, 12 markers behind the leader Justin Lofton. Dillon continues to lead the 2012 Sunoco Rookie of the Year point standings after assuming the lead following the third race of the season. He now sits 35 points ahead of driver Cale Gale after seven races on the Camping World Truck Series schedule.(Richard Childress Racing PR)(6-26-2012)
