CONCORD, N.C. – Joe Gibbs Racing plans to test a Nationwide Series car of tomorrow next week at Lowe’s Motor Speedway, NASCAR and track officials confirmed Thursday.
In addition to the JGR Toyota, five other teams plan to test in what is the second official test of the Nationwide COT. Michael Waltrip Racing will test a Toyota, Roush Fenway Racing will test a Ford, Chip Ganassi Racing will test a Dodge and Richard Childress Racing and Davis Motorsports will test a Chevrolet.
All but JGR participated in the first official test of the Nationwide COT at Richmond International Raceway last weekend.
The test is slated for Monday and Tuesday at the 1.5-mile track from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. EDT each day, with a one-hour break for lunch. It will be the first official test on an intermediate track.
Several independent Nationwide car owners said Thursday their teams simply can’t afford to build a new COT, saying it is already expensive enough to make each race.
The car is expected to debut in 2010 for the full season.
