I’ve raced there twice in the Craftsman Trucks and twice in the Busch Series. I think my worst finish was when I ran 15th the first time I ran there back in the 2000 Busch race. I came really close to winning both of the truck races, but I had to settle for second both times. This is an off weekend for the Nextel Cup Series, so this will be the first time that I will be able to spend the whole time concentrating on the Busch car. I know that Braun Racing ran well at Gateway last year with David Stremme, so hopefully we can put our experience and knowledge together to produce a win this weekend.�?? Leffler about driving the #32 WINFUEL Chevy: “I am looking forward to getting back behind the wheel of the #32 WINFUEL Chevy this weekend at Gateway. The Braun Racing guys have given me really fast cars the three times that I have driven for them, but we have had some bad luck that’s kept us from finishing like we should. Hopefully, this weekend we can turn our luck around and be around at the end of the race to compete for the win.�??
