Clint Bowyer will replace John Wes Townley in the No. 21
Zaxby’s Chevrolet for the Bashas' Supermarkets 200 on Friday.
Townley, 20, wrecked his car 25 laps into Friday
morning’s Nationwide Series practice. He was 17th fastest on
the speed chart at the time of the incident.
Townley is currently 17th in the NNS points. His best finish
this season was 15th at Las Vegas Motors Speedway on Feb. 27.
Mike Dillon, Vice President of Competition for Richard
Childress Racing, said Townley's “not feeling too good
right now" which led to the driver change.
Bowyer won this Nationwide race in 2007. He’s completed
every lap of NNS competition he’s raced and boasts an average
finish of 6.7 at the 1-mile venue.
