Joe Gibbs Racing Expected To Announce Logano As Driver Of No. 20
Monday, 25 August 2008 05:35

 

Joe Gibbs Racing will hold a press conference Monday afternoon to reveal the driver of the No. 20 Home Depot Toyota for 2009. All indication is that 18-year-old stand out Joey Logano will be named to the car being vacated by Cup Series champion Tony Stewart.

 

At a Victory Lane Indoor Karting event earlier this week in Charlotte for Nationwide sponsor GameStop, Logano climbed behind of the No. 20 kart for the majority of the night. When asked if that was any indication of things to come, the kid who has handled the spotlight marvelously smiled and simply stated, "Maybe, we'll just have to see."

 

Monday afternoon that wait will be over. The kid who likes to call himself "Sliced Bread" will step up to the plate and take over one of the most successful rides in all of NASCAR. It should not take long for Logano to find success in the sport's top series, and when he does, look out.
