Ricky Carmichael is set to be the driver of the #4-Monster Energy Chevy for KHI for this week’s njoyIllinois.com 225 at Chicagoland Speedway. Carmichael finds himself on an equal playing field heading into the Truck Series inaugural event. Carmichael turned some laps in a truck at the 1.5-mile oval with Kevin Harvick Inc. teammate Ron Hornaday last season during a test session. “My biggest frustration this season has been the fact that I have never seen most of these places,” Carmichael said. “Going into Chicago this week, I feel like I am on the same page as all the other guys. I have tested a truck there and do have some laps on the track. My team has continued to improve all year, I had a top five going at O’Reilly Raceway Park the last time I was in this truck, so I’m pretty excited to get back behind the wheel and see what we can get out of it.” (Kevin Harvick Inc.
