NOTES:

This Week's Race Truck for Phoenix International Raceway is Chassis No. 23-121.  Chassis No. 23-121 took the No. 23 team to victory lane at Martinsville (Va.) Speedway three weeks ago.  It has been the team's short track workhorse during the 2008 campaign.

Certified Leader…  Toyota Certified Used Vehicles will serve as the primary sponsor of the No. 23 Toyota Tundra team at Phoenix International Raceway.  The used car leader is the first in the automotive industry to surpass two million certified used vehicles sold.

Spin and Win…  Benson captured the pole at Phoenix in 2006, then spun going into turn three on the first lap of the race.  Benson went on to win the event.  It was the No. 23 Toyota Certified Used Vehicles Tundra's fifth win of the 2006 season.  Benson and the No. 23 team have already captured five victories this year.

Championship Battle…  The No. 23 Bill Davis Racing team is still in a tight battle for the 2008 NASCAR Camping World Truck Series Championship.  Benson leads the No. 33 team of Ron Hornaday by only six points with two events remaining in the season.

Listen and Watch … The Lucas Oil 150 is scheduled to start at 6 p.m. MST Friday, Nov. 7.  It will broadcast on SPEED (TV), MRN (radio) and Sirius Satellite Radio (Ch. 128).

Johnny Benson on racing at Phoenix International Raceway: "I am looking forward to getting to Phoenix.  It is a great facility, and we have had some success there in the past.  We are bringing a truck that has been really strong all year.  Hopefully we will have another strong run this Friday night.

"[Crew Chief] Trip Bruce and all the guys on this Toyota Certified Used Vehicles Tundra team have worked their tails off this season, and it has shown in our trucks.  We show up every week with a truck that is capable of running up front.  They have shown they are a championship caliber team.  They have dealt with adversity and bounced back, which is the sign of a strong unit.  I am really proud of all that we have accomplished."
