New Driver: Bobby Hamilton Jr. will
behind the wheel of the No. 4 Bobby
Hamilton Racing entry this week at Nashville Super Speedway for the running
of the Federated Auto Parts 200. Hamilton Jr. will be making his first
start
in the Truck Series this season, and it could not come at a better place.
Hamilton Jr. has competed in all three NASCAR Busch Grand National events
at the super speedway and to date, he has recorded a second and a third place effort during the two races held in 2002. In 2001, he had the car to beat until a problem in turn one and two ended his day.
"For some reason, I have done really good at the new track," said Hamilton
Jr. "I'm not sure if it's my driving style or if it's because of being at
home. We had planned on running this race earlier in the year with Ed Rensi,
but when the deal with the No. 4 came about, it just made sense to get in
the family truck."
The No. 4 Team enters the event in the 19th position in the NASCAR
Craftsman Truck Series owner's points standings, following the Indianapolis
Raceway Park event last weekend.
Sponsors: The No. 4 Dodge truck will
display two new sponsors for the Nashville Super Speedway race this
weekend. Harris Electrical Supply Company will appear on the truck along
with MPact Construction. Harris Electrical Supply Company is a Square D
distributor for Middle Tennessee and Southern Kentucky. They service the
residential, contractor, industrial, and OEM markets with a variety of
electrical supply equipment. They have been in the Nashville, Tennessee
area since 1956. MPact Construction is a local Nashville, Tennessee
building company that has joined Bobby Hamilton Racing for this one event.
One Start in Truck Series: Hamilton
Jr. has one start in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series in his NASCAR
career. In 2001, he started the event at the Milwaukee Mile in the No. 4
Truck. He finished in the 33rd position that day.
Championship Hunt: With eight races
remaining in the 2002 season, there are still 23 teams that can win the
2002 NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series Championship.
Past History: Last year at Nashville
Super Speedway, Bill Lester ran the No.
4 truck with sponsorship from Dodge. He qualified in the 10th position, but
was involved in an early accident that dropped him to a 30th place finish.
Open House: On Thursday, August 8,
2002, from 6 PM to 10 PM Bobby Hamilton Racing will be hosting an open
house at their Mount Juliet, Tennessee shop. The event will have live
entertainment, souvenirs, and the Craftsman Interactive on site.
This Week's Truck: Hamilton Jr. will
be racing "Hank" at the Nashville Super
Speedway for the No. 4 Team this week. Hank has never started or finished
outside the top ten since it was built over the winter.
