The last time Justin Lofton was behind the wheel of a race vehicle, he scored an impressive third place finish at the Daytona International Speedway in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series season-opener. Four weeks later, it’s time for Lofton to get back to business. Lofton will be racing his College Complete.com / General Tire #77 class 1500 unlimited buggy in the legendary General Tire Mint 400 off-road racing event in Jean, Nevada. Lofton will drive the rough and tough 92-mile course four times. Jorge Lameda will be along for the ride, serving as Lofton’s navigator. Fortunately for Lofton, with numerous breaks in the NASCAR Truck Series schedule this year, he was able to also add seven off-road events on his calendar, including this week’s run in Jean. Lofton’s General Tire Mint 400 run in the No. 77 Class 1500 unlimited buggy is set for this Saturday, March 24th.(Justin Lofton Racing PR)(3-22-2012)
