A DIFFERENT TESTING STRATEGY PREPARES DAVID GREEN AND AFG GLASS RACING TEAM FOR SATURDAY'S RACE: In preparation for Saturday's All Pro Bumper to Bumper 300 NASCAR Busch Series race, David Green and the AFG Glass Racing team participated in a two-day open test session at Lowe's Motor Speedway on September 25 & 26. Green used the No. 34 Chevrolet Monte Carlo dubbed G6, the same car used in Michigan earlier this season.

"We tested last week at Charlotte and made two long runs, something I have never done there before," said Green. "We gathered some information that will help us a great deal. We stayed away from doing any qualifying stuff because the weather changes so much there and that in turn changes the track. You never know what you are going to have to work with until you get there. We're bringing the same car we brought to Michigan, although, I don't think we should have brought it there. It is more suited for Charlotte, so I think we will have a better day this time."
