Turner Scott Motorsports announced today that the four-time NASCAR Truck Series champion Ron Hornaday Jr. will be behind the wheel of the the #30 Chevy Silverado in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series season opener at Daytona International Speedway.
The seasoned NASCAR veteran will embark on his second-career start for TSM following a top-five finish in the 2013 season finale at Homestead-Miami Speedway. Sponsored by Rheem Comfort Products, the 55-year-old veteran will pilot the famed red and black Rheem paint scheme in the NextEra Energy Resources 250.
Hornaday is no stranger to success at the 2.5-mile track, having 10 starts, two top fives and three top 10s in the NCWTS alone. With direction from former racer-turned-crew-chief, Shane Huffman, Hornaday completes the TSM roster for the NCWTS race at Daytona and will be running alongside teammates Ben Kennedy and Ryan Truex.
“I’m really excited about having a four-time champion in one of our trucks,” said TSM co-owner Steve Turner. “Both Ron’s team and our team are working diligently to get a full-time deal put together for the 2014 season.”
