In order to find the most competitive combination in his stable, longtime Truck Series owner Billy Ballew has made sweeping changes to his organization placing Rich Bickle in the #15 FASSCORE Marketing/Vokal Clothing Ford and moving Andy Houston to the #9 Spondivits Bar and Grill Ford for the Hardee’s 200 at Lowe’s Motor Speedway this Friday. Veteran NCTS crew chief Gary Showalter will team with Bickle and NASCAR Busch series veteran crew chief Tommy Morgan will join forces with Houston. “We are going to find out which of our combinations of drivers and crew chiefs is fastest,” Ballew said. “As competitive as this series has become you have to keep pushing the envelope and that is what we are going to do. Andy has done a great job in the 15 truck and Rich did a super job at Martinsville in the 9 truck. We thought if we tried some other combinations we might get even better.”(PR)(5-12-2003)
