2010 Charlotte: Clint Bowyer NASCAR Nationwide Race Preview
This Week's Zaxby's Chevrolet at Charlotte ... Clint Bowyer will drive Chassis No. 082 in this weekend's Tech-Net Auto Service 300 at Charlotte Motor Speedway. This brand-new chassis will complete its maiden voyage on-track this weekend.
By the Numbers ... In nine previous NNS starts at Charlotte, Bowyer has earned two top-five and six top-10 finishes among 10 laps led. The 2008 NNS champion has completed 94.2 percent (1,701 of 1,805) of the laps he has attempted at Charlotte and boasts an average start position of 12.9 and an average finish of 15.4. He has finished in the top-10 in his last five consecutive Charlotte races.
Daytona Testing ... Scott Wimmer tested the No. 21 Zaxby's Chevrolet during a two-day NASCAR test session at Daytona International Speedway on May 18 and 19. The team posted the fifth-fastest time during single-car runs during the morning session on May 18.

CLINT BOWYER QUOTES:
What are your expectations for Charlotte?
"We haven't been getting the finishes that we need this year but we have some pretty good runs in the Nationwide Series at Charlotte so I think we can turn it around. We're bringing a brand new racecar, so we're going all out."
As a double-duty driver, you will race 900 miles this weekend.
"There are a few of us who will compete in both races this weekend. I'm ready. It will be fun. The track is really fast, so 900 miles isn't as grueling at Charlotte as it would be somewhere else. Still, it's pretty amazing when you think about it. I don't think I competed in 900 miles in an entire season growing up racing dirt cars."
