Mike Morgan, a Mack mechanic from Nashville, leads the point standings in the Meritor ChampTruck World Series after the first weekend of racing.
Morgan and his black #88 Mack of the Powershift Performance racing team, won the season-opening race last weekend.
Competitor Mike Ryan, who is third in the driver standings and a principal in the ChampTruck organization, said this of Morgan on Facebook:
“Mike was the first racer to believe in us as an organization and the first to build a truck. His Mack was the class of the field this weekend at the New Jersey Motorsports Park and he richly deserves his wins. On behalf of ChampTruck, we congratulate you on building a class truck and turning a top notch driving performance. We are proud that you chose to be a part of Champtruck and it was a story book event to have you be the overall winner and points leader.”
