Ryan Truex to attempt Daytona 500 with Tommy Baldwin

Ryan Truex will attempt to make the season opening Daytona 500 in the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series.

Truex will drive the No. 71 Chevrolet of Tommy Baldwin Racing at the 2.5-mile Daytona International Speedway.

“I am very thankful to TBR and Tommy Baldwin for this opportunity and can’t wait to get to Daytona and back in a Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series car,” commented Ryan Truex. “The pressure is on to make it into the race, but Tommy is a true racer, and I know he will put everything into the car to give us a great shot.”

“I’m excited to have Ryan back in a Tommy Baldwin Racing car,” team owner Tommy Baldwin said. “We had success at Daytona in the NASCAR Xfinity Series in the past. I’ve known the Truex family a very long time, and it’s special that we’ll be able to compete in the Daytona 500 together, and hopefully more races as the year goes on. We are still in search of a primary sponsor that we’re hoping to put together in time to give TBR a great run this year.”
