After several races on mile and a half speedways the NASCAR Camping World Truck returns to short track racing at the New Hampshire Motor Speedway this weekend. SS Green Light Racing’s David Starr could not be happier to return to a short track with the same Toyota Tundra that finished third at Lucas Raceway Park back in July.

The last two speedway events ended with disappointing finishes with Starr incurring flat tires at both Atlanta and Chicago have dropped Starr to twelfth in the standings and David and the SS Green Light team look for better luck on the flat, one mile oval at Loudon, New Hampshire.

New Hampshire has been a strong racetrack for Starr over his long career. In ten previous NCWTS races at the one-mile Loudon, David’s average start is 12.8 and average finish is 10.6. He has five top-ten and two top-fives finishes and has completed an amazing 99.8% of the laps over the ten races.

“It’s unfortunate we’ve had some bad luck these last two or three weeks and hopefully we can get it turned around at New Hampshire. I really like that racetrack. Its flat, it’s a real challenging racetrack and it’s a lot of fun to race on,” said Starr. “You have to have a good truck that turns in the center with lots of forward bite and some good smoke under the hood. If you are missing one of those key three elements it can be a long day.”

ASI Limited will return to the hood of the SS Green Light Toyota this week. The Indianapolis based company is an industry leader in the building enclosure industry.

“Loudon a great place and we are really looking forward to getting our ASI Limited/Zachry Toyota Tundra there and having a great finish because we really need one to bounce back. The team goal is to get ourselves back into the top ten in points and to do that we have to start getting some great finishes.”

“Last week at Chicago it was unfortunate that we were at someone else’s mercy that another truck ran into us and cut our left rear tire and we lost two laps. I thought with the changes we made to our Tundra we would have finished in the top-ten but it didn’t work out that way. We just have to put that behind us and move forward.”

“You know, our backs are up against the wall. We have some work to do and everybody at SS Green Light Racing is ready. The important thing is with the number of races we have left is to get some great finishes, we have our work cut out for us and we are all ready for it.”

Zachry will provide associate sponsorship this week on the No. 81 Toyota.

F. W. Webb 175 is the 264th consecutive NCWTS start for the SS Green Light Racing team and the 284th career start for Starr in the Truck Series. David has four victories, 47 top-fives and 114 top-tens through his 14-year career including two top-fives and seven top-tens so far in 2011.
