Xeonic Posted July 25, 2004 Share Posted July 25, 2004 What is even more amazing, he going to attempt to run some laps at the race this weekend. And then Martin Truex Jr (Runs in Busch series, Jr. is car owner) will take over. They said Jr will run to the first caution or 25 laps , which ever comes first.
