Smith to Compete in Kentucky Busch Race
MOORESVILLE, N.C. (June 13, 2007) -- After a re-evaluation, Ginn Racing driver Regan Smith will compete in this weekend's NASCAR Busch Series race at Kentucky Speedway. As stated by Ginn Racing last week, Smith's performance has excelled and his flexible schedule is being reworked to continue his preparation for a full-time Nextel Cup ride in 2008. Smith is slated to compete in a variety of racing series during the remaining weekends of the NASCAR season. After Kentucky, Smith will drive the 01 U.S. Army Chevrolet in the Cup races in Sonoma, Calif. (June 24) and New Hampshire (July 1). He shares the 01 Cup ride with veteran Mark Martin. Smith is also scheduled to drive in the June 23 NASCAR Grand National Division race in Sonoma as well as the July 6 Busch race at Daytona International Speedway. The 23-year-old driver is ranked fifth in the Busch Series driver point standings, the highest position for a non-Nextel Cup regular. His season record includes three top fives and five top 10s. He finished fifth in Nashville last week.
