News and Notes
Oct 21
This week: Truex has only one top-10 finish in seven starts at Martinsville. "We didn't run well at Martinsville in the spring, but we ran well at Phoenix (finishing seventh), so we feel we have learned some things about flat-track racing that will help us this time around," said Truex. "We want to finish the season on a high note." Truex is leaving the team at the end of the season.
Last week: Truex was all smiles after his ninth-place finish at Charlotte, only his fourth top-10 finish of the season. "For once, we got the finish we deserved," said Truex, who jumped from 25th to 23rd in the standings. "The car was good all night and we were able to run in the front pack all evening. It was a fun evening."
Etc.: Truex said he can't say enough good things about how he has been treated by his team after announcing that he would be leaving to join Michael Waltrip Racing in 2010. "My current team, everybody there, has been really great about it," said Truex. "And I'm just looking forward to doing the best job I can for them the rest of the year and hopefully getting a trophy (for a win)."
