UPDATE: Kevin Harvick Inc. and the #2 team continue their bid for the Owner’s championship with a new face behind the wheel. Veteran driver Ken Schrader will drive the #2 Chevrolet Silverado at Kansas Speedway, making his first career start for KHI. Schrader is the third driver to compete in the No. 2 this season, with Elliott Sadler making one start and team co-owner Kevin Harvick making three starts. Ken Schrader is one of NASCAR’s most veteran drivers, having made 732 Cup Series starts, 115 Nationwide Series starts and 91 Truck Series starts, totaling 938 races in NASCAR’s top three series. In addition to making his first start for KHI, it will also be his first Truck Series start at Kansas Speedway. But don’t count Schrader out: he has made seven Cup Series starts at the track and has made 47 Truck Series starts at intermediate tracks (tracks between 1-2 miles in length). E-Z-GO, a Textron Company, returns to the No. 2 Chevy Silverado to promote its consumer-direct e-commerce site, shopezgo.com. E-Z-GO appeared on the #2 at Atlanta Motor Speedway, where Kevin Harvick drove the truck to Victory Lane for the first time in 2010.(Kevin Harvick Inc. PR)(4-26-2010)
