Matt Crafton is looking forward to getting back in the seat of the No. 88 Menards/Herculiner Chevrolet to kick off the 2011 NASCAR Camping World Truck Series season. Crafton’s consistency was key in 2010, scoring one pole, ten top-five finishes, ten top-ten finishes and a fourth-place finish in the series championship standings. His 2011 goal is simple: to get into Victory Lane as much as possible and gain wins to add to the consistency boards. Period. “We changed to ECR engines, and that has made a huge difference in horsepower, which is where we had challenges last year. At Daytona, it’s what it’s going to take to bring the last push home and what will distinguish the veteran drivers – since we all want a strong finish. We also made a few personnel changes, so it’s a strong team. I’m proud of my guys, and it’s great to be with Bud (Haefele) again this year. Matt has started ten NCWTS races at Daytona, with three top-ten finishes in his past four attempts. His best finish is fifth in 2010.(ThorSport Racing PR)(2-16-2011)
