MILLINGTON, Tenn., June 22 (UPI) -- Travis Kvapil captured his second career NASCAR Craftsman Series race Saturday, holding off Terry Cook to win the O'Reilly 200 at Memphis Motorsports Park.

Driving a CAT Chervolet, Kvapil defeated Cook by .187 seconds. His previous victory in the truck came last year at Texas Motor Speedway.

Kvapil, the Rookie of the Year in 2001, led the most laps in a race that featured two restarts over the final 50 laps.

Ted Musgrave, polesitter Jason Leffler and defending champion Dennis Setzer completed the top five.
