Weller to return to SS, second team uncertain:

SS Green Light racing is pleased to announce that Ohio native Jimmy Weller will return to the Camping World Truck Series team for 2014. Weller spent 2013 splitting time racing near his Ohio home and the SS Green Light Racing shop learning the ins and outs of NASCAR racing while making five starts for the Mooresville, NC based team including a best finish of seventeenth at the season ending Ford EcoBoost 200 at Homestead-Miami Speedway.The SS Green Light Teams will run primarily Chevy Silverado trucks in 2014 with power from Mark Smith’s Pro Motors. Weller will compete in a minimum of twelve races behind the wheel of the No. 08 Silverado beginning with the 2014 opening Nextera Energy Resources 250 on February 21st at Daytona. As they did at Homestead-Miami, Engine Parts Plus of Detroit, MI will provide support to Weller and the SS Green Light team at Daytona and select races throughout the 2014 NCWTS season. With two guaranteed starting spots based on 2013 points, team owner Bobby Dotter is currently recruiting fully or partially funded drivers to complete the 22-race Camping World Truck Series 2014 season.(SS Green Light Racing)
