Carl Long picked up the 3rd last-place finish of his Camping World Truck Series career in Saturday’s inaugural Pocono Mountains 125 at the Pocono Raceway when his unsponsored #95 Team Gill Racing Dodge fell out with overheating problems after completing 2 of the race’s 55 laps.

Long qualified 21st at a speed of 156.497 mph, giving owner Danny Gill his best qualifying run since Geoffrey Bodine qualified 8th at Atlanta. Long fell out of the race after two laps, followed by Michigan last-place finisher J.C. Stout. Current 2010 LASTCAR Truck Series leader Mike Garvey and his #93 did not fall out until lap 14, leaving him 33rd.
