Barton was assigned to start the race last out of 22 drivers, after having no practice time and having not participated in a race since September 2009. He quickly caught up and ended up finishing 11^th out of 22 drivers. The Las Vegas native, sponsored by FullTiltPoker.net and ShopBest Inc., was one of nine rookies participating in the race. His next race is Thursday, April 8 at the Phoenix International Raceway.

“I’m really happy about the way this race turned out, especially since I hadn’t been in a race car since September,” Barton said. “I’m feeling optimistic about the rest of the season and especially looking forward to my next race in Phoenix.”
