Charlotte, NC (May 14, 2012) - This Week’s No. 9 Chevrolet… Hornaday will pilot chassis No. 06 in this weekend’s N.C. Education Lottery 200. This is the same Joe Denette Motorsports chassis that Hornaday piloted to the team’s first top-10 finish, sixth, at Kansas Speedway last month.

Hornaday, who made his eighth start at Kansas Speedway in last month’s SFP 250, rebounded from a lap 42 spin to finish sixth. This was the sophomore team’s first top-10 finish of the season.

Get to the Point… Hornaday has been working on an upward charge in the point’s battle since Daytona. The series veteran is up to seventh in the 2012 NCWTS driver point standings, 11 points outside the top-five. Joe Denette, owner of the No. 9 Chevrolet, is up four positions to seventh in the 2012 NCWTS owner point standings.

From the driver, Ron Hornaday… “We have done some testing, found a few things and the boys have been working hard making updates on our intermediate trucks, getting the drag out and getting good down force.  [More]
