* Scot Walters and the Red Man/Brewco Motorsports team is using the same truck 012 that they raced at Milwaukee last week and Phoenix earlier in the year.

"This is one of the new trucks we built over the winter," said crew chief Terry Shirley. "It is taking some time to get all the bugs out of the truck but it's a good truck. The big thing for this team right now is learning every week new things to do to get ourselves and our equipment more competitive."

* Scot Walters and the Red Man/Brewco Motorsports team participated in the July 6th test at Indianapolis Raceway Park in Clermont, Indiana. The NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series teams will be returning to the Clermont, Indiana Speedway on July 30 for the Cummins 200.

"This test helped a lot," said Walters. "It's important to go test so when we go back to the track we have a better idea of what it will take to go fast and perform. The test for us went great, we found some things I think will help our effort when we get back there to race."

* Puff Cigarette & Tobacco stores is the associate sponsor on the No. 37 Red Man Chevrolet for the NAPA Autocare 200 at Nazareth Speedway in Nazareth, Pennsylvania. The chain operates eight stores in central Pennsylvania.
