Camping World Truck Series
The #20 truck debuted in 2006 at the GM Flex Fuel 250 as the #20 truck. Jon Wood drove the truck for two races, due to Marcos Ambrose not being cleared to run the first two races due to limited experience. Bobby East running the event at Atlanta. Ambrose finally took over the ride at Martinsville, winning one pole and posting two third-place finishes during the season. In 2007, the truck switched numbers to 09. Joey Clanton brought Zaxby's as a sponsor and would share the ride with ex Busch Series veteran Stacy Compton. Clanton, despite running a partial schedule, was third in the Rookie of the Year standings. Clanton would take both the 09 and Zaxby's with him to Roush Fenway Racing for 2008, allowing JTG Daugherty to switch back to the #20 and hire Scott Lagasse as their new driver. After eight races, JTG Daugherty closed its truck team due to a lack of funding.

“Having children can smooth the relationship, too. Mother and daughter are now equals. That is hard to imagine, even harder to accept, for among other things, it means realizing that your own mother felt this way, too—unsure of herself, weak in the knees, terrified about what in the world to do with you. It means accepting that she was tired, inept, sometimes stupid; that she, too, sat in the dark at 2:00 A.M. with a child shrieking across the hall and no clue to the child’s trouble.”
—Anna Quindlen (20th century)
“If an Englishman gets run down by a truck he apologizes to the truck.”

“Galileo, with an operaglass, discovered a more splendid series of celestial phenomena than anyone since.”
