– Stewart Friesen will carry a special decal on the hood of the No. 52 this weekend to promote the Orange County Fair Speedway Centennial race.

Quote:

“Our team as a whole brings a lot of confidence into Eldora this week. Trip (Bruce, crew chief) is very optimistic despite our bad luck last week and I’m confident in my abilities as well. Obviously, dirt is my wheelhouse and we’ve had strong runs in this race the last two years. Hopefully we can go out there and get my first truck win.”
