Larson Set For Martinsville Truck Race

Kyle Larson will do double duty this weekend at Martinsville Speedway, wheeling a McDonald’s-sponsored Chevrolet for GMS Racing in Saturday’s Alpha Energy Resources 250, in addition to his regular Chip Ganassi Racing ride in Sunday’s NASCAR Sprint Cup Series STP 500.

"I'm looking forward to my first Truck Series start at Martinsville,” said Larson this week. “It's great to have McDonald's on board. They are a great partner with Chip Ganassi Racing and they have some really cool ties to GMS Racing. I've done pretty good in the few Truck Series races I've run, so I'm excited to see what we accomplish this weekend."

Larson will drive one of four GMS Racing Chevrolets in Saturday’s race, teaming with Johnny Sauter, Spencer Gallagher and newcomer Kaz Grala. This is the first time the Statesville, NC-based team has fielded four Trucks in the same race.
