WISE AIMS FOR FIRST TOYOTA VICTORY
AT KENTUCKY SPEEDWAY

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

CORNELIUS, N.C. (July 9, 2007) – Josh Wise, driver of the No. 00 Lucky Dog Toyota Tundra, hopes to be the first Toyota driver to make the trip to Victory Lane at Kentucky Speedway on Saturday.

“Out of 31 Toyota wins, it is crazy to think that Toyota hasn't won at Kentucky yet,” said Wise. “I would be honored to have the Aaron's Lucky Dog be the first Toyota in Victory Lane at that track, especially in only my fourth Truck Series start. Overall, I can't expect to win, but can expect for us to do our best and have a solid run.”

Wise's NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series experience has included Texas Motor Speedway and Kansas Speedway, which are both 1.5 mile tri-ovals tracks like Kentucky Speedway.

“Having raced on tracks similar to Kentucky Speedway has helped me learn more about the truck and the race set-ups, which can be applied to this weekend,” said Wise. “We qualified (seventh) and raced well (13 th ) in Texas and hope to have an even better run this weekend. Every time I am in the truck, whether it is a test session, practice or the main event, I learn more about the team and the Aaron's Lucky Dog Tundra. I am so thankful for Aaron's and the Lucky Dog team for all their continued support to me and the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series program.”

The Darrell Waltrip Motorsports team has had success in the past with David Reutimann at the 1.5-mile tri-oval posting one top-five and two top-10 finishes under the direction of crew chief, Jason Overstreet . Overstreet hopes to continue that trend.

“Josh is a solid driver, who continues to grow in this Series,” said Overstreet. “The team and I are working hard to bring the best truck every weekend. I am confident in Josh and our team that we will have a good top-10 finish this weekend.”

Live coverage of the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series event on Saturday, July 14 th begins at 7:30 p.m. EDT on SPEED Channel and MRN Radio.
