With Greg
Biffle’s Winston Cup Series rookie status nearing its
danger point, Ron Hornaday will take over the seat of the
No. 55 Schneider Electric Chevy for Andy Petree Racing for
this weekend’s EA Sports 500 at Talladega Superspeedway.
Hornaday is
certainly no rookie, and relishes
|
| the
chance to drive the No. 55 Chevy. He’s a Busch Series
regular, driving the No. 26 Carroll Racing Chevy, but has
made some spot Winston Cup starts this season. He was a
Winston Cup regular last year for A.J. Foyt Racing in the
No. 14 Pontiac.
“Ron is a great choice
for Talladega,” said Jimmy Elledge, crew chief for the
No. 55 Chevy. “His experience and expertise behind the
wheel of a race car will help us there. He’s had some
good races there and tends to run pretty strong everywhere
he goes. That place (Talladega) just takes someone who has
been there and felt the strain it can put on drivers.
