The Worker Warehouse - Home: Carhartt News: Matt Kenseth Third in IROC Race Richmond, Virginia - September 8, 2005 Matt Kenseth Third in IROC Race

Matt Kenseth, in addition to competing in the NASCAR Busch and Cup races this weekend at the Richmond International Raceway, participated in the third of four IROC events to be held in 2005 Thursday night. Kenseth, the defending 2004 Crown Royal IROC Champion, raced alongside eleven other champion racers from various series, including the Champ Car World Series, the IRL IndyCar Series and the World of Outlaws. Kenseth finished in the third position following a late rally after a spin early in the event. The starting line-up was determined by inverting the field based upon the IROC point standings. As Kenseth was seated in the fourth position in the standings, he took the green flag for the 90-lap event in eighth spot. The No. 17 spun on lap three of the event in an attempt to avoid a spinning car in front of him and was then hit from behind. The car suffered minor damage but, after a quick trip onto pit road, resumed the race. The field ran 60 laps before taking a mandatory caution flag for routine pit stops. The final 30-lap shootout was slowed by four cautions with Roush Racing teammate Mark Martin inching out teammate Kurt Busch to take the checkered flag. The Roush Racing trio of Martin, Busch and Kenseth took the top three positions in Thursday night's event. Kenseth's third-place finish gained him a spot in the IROC standings, from fourth to third. Roush Racing teammate Mark Martin retained the points lead with his win at Richmond. The leader of the point standings at the end of the fourth race will receive $1,000,000. The Crown Royal IROC Series will hold its' fourth and final event at the Atlanta Motor Speedway in October.
