CONCORD, N.C. (March 28, 2010) – RAB Racing with Brack Maggard and Kenny Wallace finished 15th in the Royal Purple 300 last Saturday, March 26th, at Auto Club Speedway (ACS). Wallace earned his fourth top-20 finish in only five NASCAR Nationwide Series (NNS) starts this season despite receiving damage to the No. 09 Toyota Camry early in the race.

After qualifying Saturday morning, Wallace took the green flag from the 17th position for the 150-lap event. Only 20 laps into the race, Wallace made his way down pit road to top-off the fuel tank during the second caution of day. On the restart, the No. 09 Toyota Camry suffered damage to the left rear quarter panel after a car spun in front of Wallace. The contact forced Wallace to make additional pit stops to repair the damage. Wallace continued to make progress throughout the remainder of the race before ultimately ending the day in 15th.

In addition to competing in the Nationwide Series event, Wallace also participated in Toyota Motorsports Day in Torrance, Calif., along with other Toyota-powered NASCAR drivers.

With five events complete on the 2011 NASCAR Nationwide Series schedule, Wallace heads into the off weekend solidly inside the top-10 in the NNS driver point standings in the eighth position. The No. 09 is currently 14th in the NNS owner point standings.

Wallace and RAB Racing will return to the track for the O’Reilly Auto Parts 300 on Friday, April 8th, for the first night race of the season at Texas Motor Speedway. The Nationwide Series race will be broadcast live on ESPN 2 beginning at 8:30 p.m. EST and on PRN at beginning at 8:00 p.m. EST.
