Armstrong testing during off-weeks:

It may have been three weeks since ThorSport Racing rookie Dakoda Armstrong has seen NASCAR Camping World Truck Series competition, but the 20-year-old hasn’t had much time off. Following his last showing at Lucas Oil Raceway at the end of July, Armstrong has been busy testing with his No. 98 Ferrellgas/Agrisure/Drive For Savings team, working on setups and communication, as well as some extra-curricular charity work. Crew chief Dan Stillman and his ThorSport Racing crew traveled with chassis No. 32 to Mooresville, North Carolina last week for some time on the seven post and pull down rig. After finishing up there, the team made the trek back to Sandusky for a test on Friday at Sandusky Speedway. Stillman and the No. 98 Ferrellgas/Agrisure/Drive For Savings team will bring chassis No. 32 to Michigan International Speedway this weekend. This particular truck raced earlier this season at Kansas Speedway with Matt Crafton at the controls.(ThorSport Racing PR)(8-17-2011)
