No. 20 Notes of Interest
- Saturday marks Truex’s 2nd start at Dover International Speedway in a NASCAR Nationwide Series car, and his 14th start in the Nationwide Series in 2011. He finished in the top-20 at Dover earlier this year in the Pastrana-Waltrip Racing Toyota Camry.
- This is Truex’s 2nd weekend working with veteran crew chief Jason Ratcliff, and the two are teamed up for the remainder of the season.
- Dover holds special meaning to the Truex family as it is close to their hometown of Mayetta, NJ and is the track at which Ryan clinched back-to-back K&N Pro Series East Championships in 2010. He is also scheduled to drive at Kansas and Phoenix later this year.
- Heinz 57® Sauce has come on board for the Dover race. First introduced in 1911, Heinz 57® Sauce is celebrating 100 years of infusing fun and excitement into grilling fare across America.
Ryan Truex on Riding the Momentum with JGR
“Things have gone really good with JGR so far, everyone makes it really easy for a young guy like me to come in and be able to communicate what I need and in turn, they give me great cars. We have been fast in every race so far and I feel like we have good momentum going into Dover.”
Truex on His Hometown Track
“Dover is special for my family because it’s so close to home. We have lots of family and friends come out and hang out for the weekend. I definitely feel more pressure having them all there, but it feels good to have so much support in the stands.”
Truex on His Goals for Dover
“My goal for Dover is to do the same thing we have done the past three weeks. I’m going to be patient and try not to make any mistakes. I know if I can do that, my guys will do the rest, and we will be there at the end to have a shot at the win.”
