Mike Bliss will rejoin Xpress Motorsports behind the wheel of the #16 Chevy Trucks Silverado for the four remaining events of the 2005 Truck Series schedule. Bliss and Xpress won the NCTS championship in 2002 with an impressive record that included five trips to victory lane, 13 top-five finishes, 18 top-10 runs and four poles. “I am excited to be back with Xpress Motorsports,” said the Milwaukie, OR native. “I would like to thank Dave Fuge and Chevrolet for giving me the opportunity to drive the Chevy Trucks Silverado for the final four races of this season.” “We are very pleased that Mike has agreed to drive for us the remainder of the season,” said Dave Fuge, Xpress Motorsports team owner. “We had tremendous success together in the past and I think it will be pretty easy transition. Hopefully we can return to victory lane before this season is over. We have talked about continuing our partnership in 2006 and beyond but both of us want to make sure we explore all options available to us before we make a decision. So as of this moment, he will drive for us through Homestead and then we will reevaluate where each of us are in the decision making process regarding the future and go from there.”(GM Racing PR)(10-26-2005)
