“I’m very excited for the opportunity to get back behind the wheel for Billy Ballew Motorsports and to be able to race at The Milwaukee Mile,” Almirola commented.

“I’ve had pretty good runs at Milwaukee and have collected a couple poles there in a Nationwide car. I’m going to be running a double-header weekend, running both the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series event on Friday followed by the Nationwide Series race on Saturday night. I can’t ask for much more than two nights of racing back-to-back.”

Richie Wauters from nearby Green Bay, Wisconsin will serve as the crew chief on the No. 15 Zaxby’s Toyota Tundra.
