A long-time national series competitor, Joe Ruttman (No. 18 Fastenal Dodge) will return to the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series for seven races in 2007 beginning with the April 28 O’Reilly Auto Parts 250 at Kansas Speedway.
Ruttman will handle driving duties for Bobby Hamilton Racing when Ken Schrader is unable to race due to his NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series commitments.
“I can’t wait to climb into the Fastenal Dodge, ” Ruttman said. “Bobby Hamilton and I had a great friendship. I am not here to fill Bobby Sr. ’s seat; I don’t think anyone can do that justice as he did. ”
