With Matt Crafton’s departure from the Menards Chevy to Kevin Harvick’s team for “04, the official inquiry list at the #88 team now stands at 131. A sign was posted on the shop door that read “Male and female long haul truck driver team wanted.” Tina Gordon will not return to Brevak racing and it is very likely that she will join the new driver of the #88 as a two truck team. PJ Jones has been spending time in the pit area watching Crafton’s crew and Marty Houston is also rumored to be in the running as a possible wheelman. Tracy Hines and Mark Green are also on the short list. With great improvement this season the team is just 23 points out of the top-10. However, Crafton has yet to score a top-5 finish in a race
