● This Week's Race Truck for New Hampshire Motor Speedway is Chassis No. 22-89. Chassis No. 22-89 was last raced at O'Reilly Raceway Park, where the 22-year-old Michael Annett was spun coming out of turn four with less than ten laps remaining the in the event while running in the third spot.

● Another Pilot... The No. 22 Toyota Tundra will fly the Pilot Travel Center colors Saturday in New Hampshire. Pilot Travel Centers are located throughout the United States and are the leading travel center for both truckers and families.

● Good Start… This will be Annett's final time behind the wheel of the No. 22 Bill Davis Racing Toyota Tundra in 2008. In five starts, Annett has earned one top-five and two top-ten finishes, including a runner-up finish at Kentucky Speedway last month. The rookie driver has an average finish of 13.4. Annett will continue to test for Bill Davis Racing in preparation for the 2009 campaign.

Michael Annett on Racing at New Hampshire Motor Speedway:  "I am looking forward to this weekend. I love flat race tracks. New Hampshire Motor Speedway is a place where you have to really hustle your truck into the corner and carry speed off in order to pass. It reminds me a lot of Gateway International Raceway, where you have to be really quick through the center of the corner and be able to get back into the gas early.  I know Doug Wolcott [crew chief] and the guys on the No. 22 Pilot Travel Centers Toyota Tundra team are bringing a great truck. I would love to give these guys a win.

"I have learned so much in the last three months. We have been able to have some really strong runs and had a lot of fun in the process. Doug is a great crew chief and has been able to adapt to my driving style.  The guys at Bill Davis Racing are the cream of the crop. They are the best of the best. I am lucky to be a part of Bill Davis Racing and am looking forward to what is still yet to come."
