 * ... that John King win in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series' 2012 event at Daytona International Speedway was only the third win of his entire racing career?

 * Symbol question.svg This article was actually started on Feb. 24, does that disqualify it?  Can anyone say?
 * The article is cited, but I question the reliability of the source for the hook (I'm just not familiar that type of publication). I also wonder if the lead is interesting.  Is it rare for that event to be won by someone who has only won twice before? (I really don't know) It seems to me that you have to start somewhere.--Ishtar456 (talk) 01:52, 1 March 2012 (UTC)
 * The first edit was at 03:28, 25 February 2012 (UTC). SPEED Channel is the cable, auto-racing division of Fox Sports, which, as part of a major network, is a very reliable source; note that the hook is also sourced to the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel. And to only have won twice at any level of racing, then win a race in a NASCAR national touring series (Sprint Cup Series, Nationwide Series, or Camping World Truck Series) is absolutely unheard of. - The Bushranger One ping only 02:48, 1 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Maybe our timezones are drastically different or some weird thing, but I see the fist edit as 22:28, February 24, 2012. No big deal, just one day.  It is the only issue I have so if no one else has an issue. Symbol confirmed.svg good to go. --Ishtar456 (talk) 02:57, 1 March 2012 (UTC)
