Quote selected text Published August 29th, 2007 in NASCAR News
Chip Ganassi Racing officials announced Wednesday that AJ Allmendinger would drive the team’s No. 42 Dodge in the next five Busch Series races. Allmendinger’s first race in the car will be this weekend’s Camping World 300 at California Speedway.
Allmendinger drives Team Red Bull’s No. 84 Toyota in the Nextel Cup Series, and the agreement with Ganassi allows Allmendinger, a rookie in Cup, more seat time in a NASCAR stock car.
Ganassi officials were going to stop running the No. 42, which was primarily driven by Ganassi Cup rookie Juan Pablo Montoya this year, after the Watkins Glen race but decided to keep it going. Brian Pattie is the crew chief.
