NOTES & QUOTES
Kluever is currently 16th in the Busch Series point standings, and third in the Raybestos Rookie points.
The No. 06 team will be taking chassis #RK-372 to Gateway. This car last raced at Dover where Kluever finished 18th.
This will be Kluever's second start at Gateway. He also ran the Craftsman Truck Series race there last year.
Todd Kluever on Gateway:
"My previous experience at Gateway has not been too good. We tested there for two days last year with the truck and went back with a truck that was not very good. Hopefully we'll go back this year with a better Busch car and have a lot better run.
"Gateway seems to be a lot like New Hampshire and we had a decent run there last week. I think we'll be a lot better than we were last year. We're taking chassis 372 which was brand new at Dover, so Gateway will be its second race. I'm excited because it's got a great body on it and the aerodynamics are really good. Going into Gateway I'd really just like to get a solid top-10 finish and get out of there. It's a place that hasn't been very good to me in the past, so if I can just get in the top 10 I think that would be a great run for us."
