COMPTON ON RACING IN HOMESTEAD:
"I'm really excited about racing in the season finale at Homestead-Miami Speedway. I have always run really well there and I don't expect that to be any different this weekend. Homestead is pretty similar to Kentucky in the way that you drive it and since we ran really well at Kentucky earlier this year, I think we'll have a good shot at a top-five finish on Friday night. I'm really optimistic about it."

COMPTON CONSISTENT IN CLOSING OUT THE YEAR:
"It's been a decent and consistent year for us. We've had moments of excellence and we've made a few mistakes. We certainly have a lot to build on going into the winter and I am really looking forward to racing with this team in 2010."

COMPTON CLOSE TO TOP-10 IN SERIES STANDINGS:
Stacy Compton currently occupies the 11th spot in the 2009 championship title chase with 3,024 points. Compton sits only 25 points out of the top-10. Since making his debut with the Wyler Racing team at Daytona International Speedway in February, Compton has finished in the top-10 nine times. This season was the first time Compton has raced in the Truck Series full-time since he finished fourth in the title chase in 1999.

COMPTON HAS A LOT TO BE THANKFUL FOR HEADING INTO THE HOLIDAYS:
"As the season comes to an end, there's no better time to say 'Thank You' to those who have made racing possible for us throughout the year. We couldn't do this without the continued support from Jeff and David Wyler, SafeAuto Insurance, Toyota, Arrington Manufacturing, Mark Melling and Melling Enterprises, The Jeff Wyler Automotive Group, our hotel partners across the U.S., all of the Wyler Racing employees, our vendors, and all of our families, friends, and fans. We are looking forward to enjoying the off-season with our loved ones and will be anxious to return to racing at Daytona International Speedway in February, 2010!"

THE CREW CHIEF'S CHOICE FOR HOMESTEAD:
Marcus Richmond, Crew Chief of the No. 60 SafeAuto Insurance Company / Wyler.com Toyota Tundra, has selected chassis number 84 for the Ford 200. This chassis was last raced at Chicagoland Speedway where it qualified eighth and finished 12th. The team took this chassis to Nashville Superspeedway as well, but a wreck in practice forced the team to pull out their backup truck. Prior to logging laps in Nashville, this chassis was raced at Kentucky Speedway where it qualified sixth and was a rocket ship, running as high as third before being crashed while battling for second spot. The team rallied back to finish 12th with this chassis in Kentucky.

WYLER RACING HAS SCORED TWO TOP-FIVES IN FOUR STARTS AT HOMESTEAD:
The Wyler Racing team has competed at Homestead-Miami Speedway four times since their inception into the Truck Series in 2005. Jack Sprague, the three-time series Champion, was the driver in each of those four starts. Overall, the team has amassed two top-five and two top-10 finishes. Their best performance came in 2005 when they qualified third and went on to finish second in the 2005 Ford 200.

COMPTON'S CAREER AT HOMESTEAD:
Stacy Compton will make his 14th career NASCAR start at Homestead-Miami Speedway on Friday night in the No. 60 SafeAuto Insurance Toyota Tundra. Compton, who has raced in one of NASCAR's top three divisions since 1996, made his first ever start at the 1.5-mile oval in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series (NCWTS) in 1997. Since that time, Compton has accrued three NASCAR Sprint Cup Series starts, six NASCAR Nationwide Series starts, and four in the NCWTS. Compton's most notable accomplishments at Homestead have come in the NCWTS where he has one top-five and one top-10 finish which came after he qualified second for the 1999 Florida Dodge Dealers 400K and went on to finish third in the event. Compton's average NCWTS starting position is 11th and his average finish is 14th with one DNF.
