Though he maintained a busy schedule during the off season, Justin Lofton is ready for the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series (NCWTS) season to begin. Lofton, who celebrated his 26th birthday February 18th, has been anxious to get back behind the wheel of his #6 College Complete Chevrolet Silverado Lofton returns to NCWTS competition for the third straight year in 2012. His return to the series is simultaneous with his return to Eddie Sharp Racing and sponsor CollegeComplete.com. In 2009 Lofton earned the ARCA Racing Series championship while driving for ESR. In July of 2011, Lofton and Sharp decided to reunite in truck competition, and after switching manufacturers to Chevrolet, the team picked up two top-10s through the end of the year. They also nabbed a season’s best starting position of fifth in Kentucky, and ended the season 16th in the owner point standings, a gain of seven positions from where the team was when Lofton took over behind the wheel. When he takes the green flag this Friday for the NextEra Energy Resources 250, Lofton will be making his third career truck start at the famed 2.5-mile Daytona International Speedwa.(Lofton/ESR PR)(2-21-2012)
