The UNOH 225 is a NASCAR Camping World Truck Series race held at Kentucky Speedway in Sparta, Kentucky. Kentucky received a second date beginning in 2011 as part of NASCAR's latest round of schedule realignment; since 2000 the track had always held a Truck Series event. For that race, see Kentucky 201.[1]

History

In the inaugural UNOH 225, which was held on July 7, 2011, Johnny Sauter won the pole position, but Kyle Busch won the race during a green-white-checkered finish.[2] Busch started in the last position after missing the drivers meeting held earlier that day.[3]
