Rowdy’s Back… Again!
May 31, 2006
Kyle Busch is back at it again. Busch returns to the No. 51 National Land Liquidations/B & G General Store/Peavey Electronics Chevrolet for the AAA Insurance 200 at Dover International Speedway. Competing in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series for the second time this season, Busch will defend his victory from 2005 at Dover, as he did two weeks ago at Lowe’s Motor Speedway, where he was victorious.
“I’m looking forward to racing the No. 51 Silverado for Billy Ballew Motorsports again this weekend in Dover,” said Busch. “The truck series rocks and I love going over there and having some fun. We won Dover last year and the “Monster” trophy is one of my favorites.”
After the race was delayed a day because of heavy rain showers, Busch took the lead with 19 laps remaining and captured Billy Ballew Motorsports’ second win in as many races with Busch.
“Last year it helped me tremendously to run the truck race,” Busch explains. “We got our truck hooked up on the bottom of the racetrack and I translated all the information I learned in the truck race to the Busch and Cup cars. We wrecked in the Busch race but finished second in Cup. The track is so tricky, you have to have a good handling truck to stay on the bottom or the top- whatever groove you can go faster in. No doubt it’s a tough race but that’s what the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series is all about.”
Rowdy Busch definitely generated a lot of attention at Lowe’s Motor Speedway when the No. 51 took to the track, decaled like one of Busch’s favorite characters from the movie, “Days of Thunder.”
“We’ll have Rowdy Busch back on the truck again this weekend,” Busch laughs. “I had some fun with that and I think the fans and media did too. I’m just really looking forward to bringing another win home for Billy Ballew.”
As at Lowe’s, the No. 51 Silverado will carry the logos of National Land Liquidations and B & G General Store. Added to this week’s lineup is Peavey Electronics, one of the largest, most diversified, independently owned suppliers of musical instruments and professional sound equipment in the world. Team Davis Dirt Racing & Terry Reid Automotive Group will also be displayed on the No. 51 Chevy. Both entities are Georgia-based and longtime supporters of team owner Billy Ballew.
The AAA Insurance 200 rolls off at 4:45 p.m. EST but is tape-delayed on SPEED Channel until 8:00 p.m. MRN Radio and XM Satellite Radio will carry the race broadcast live from Dover International Speedway.
