DONNY LIA TO DRIVE 4th BDR
TRUCK AT LOUDON
Bill Davis Racing announced today that Donny Lia, one of NASCAR’s
Modified Superstars, will drive a fourth truck for the team in the
NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series event at [Loudon] New Hampshire
International Speedway Sept. 15.
The Jericho, N.Y., native has competed in many different
series over the years, including the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour.
Lia had already tamed two of the three most hallowed tracks on the
Tour (Stafford [Conn.] Motor Speedway and New Hampshire
International Speedway) this season, and he completed the sweep
Saturday night when he captured the pole and a win at Martinsville
(Va.) Speedway. It was his sixth victory of the
season.
“I am very excited about this opportunity,” Lia said. “Bill
Davis Racing is the best of the best when it comes to the Craftsman
Trucks, and I can’t wait to hop in one of their Tundra's in Loudon.
I have had a lot of success in other NASCAR ranks, and I am anxious
to see what I can do in the trucks. I have always run well at Loudon
and actually already won there in the Modified this year. I am
looking forward to making the best of this opportunity for Bill
Davis and Mark Chambers.”
“Lia has proven himself in other series,” said Team Manager
Mark Chambers. “He has accomplished a lot on the race track in a
very short period of time. So we thought it would be interesting to
see what he could do at the next level.”
