Chris Showalter has been there for all 399 starts, all 399 checkered flags.

On Saturday at Kansas Speedway, he'll be there when the green flag drops for the 400th NASCAR Camping World Truck Series race.

The truck chief for Travis Kvapil's No. 5 Toyota is the only person to be involved in every race on the circuit over the last 16 years.

Showalter says it has ''been a very cool'' to see the series evolve into a proving ground for Nationwide and Sprint Cup drivers - some of whom still race trucks from time to time - while raising its own crop of veterans.
