8/28/2012 This Week's Armour Vienna Sausages Chevrolet at Atlanta Motor Speedway

This Week's Armour Vienna Sausages Chevrolet at Atlanta Motor Speedway ... Joey Coulter will pilot Chassis No. 018 from the Richard Childress Racing NASCAR Camping World Truck Series stable in Friday night's Atlanta 200. Coulter drove this Chevrolet to an 11th-place finish at Dover International Speedway in June, and a seventh-place finish at Kentucky Speedway in June. The Chevrolet was also utilized by Coulter in the 2011 season where he collected three top-10 and five top-15 finishes.

Atlanta Nuggets ... Coulter has one previous start at the 1.54-mile track in the Camping World Truck Series. During his lone appearance in August 2011, Coulter started 20th and finished in the 13th position, completing 100 percent of the contested laps.

Last Trip to Georgia ... Coulter and the No. 22 RCR team spent the majority of last year's event at Atlanta Motor Speedway running in the top 10 after starting from the 20th position. A long green-flag run at the end of the 130-lap affair, however, required one more trip to pit road for fuel and resulted in a 13th-place finish for Coulter.

Season So Far ... With 13 races complete in the 2012 season, Coulter has collected one win, one pole award, three top-five and eight top-10 results. He holds an average starting position of 8.7 along with an average finishing position of 10.1 and completed 98.8 percent (2,004 of 2,028) of the contested laps.

Get to the Points ... With his eighth top-10 finish of the 2012 season at Bristol Motor Speedway last week, Coulter remains seventh in the Camping World Truck Series driver championship point standings, 51 points behind the leader.

Meet the Driver ... Coulter and RCR teammates Ty Dillon and Tim George Jr. are scheduled to appear at the Team Chevy stage on Friday, August 31 at 2:30 p.m. Easter Time in the midway area at Atlanta Motor Speedway.

Rewind: Bristol Motor Speedway ... Coulter qualified the No. 22 Steak-umm Chevrolet in the eighth position for the 200-lap affair at Bristol Motor Speedway. The Miami Springs, Fla., native remained a fixture in top 10 for the entire event and was contending for the win with eight laps to go but was shuffled back when the caution flag was displayed. As the field came around to take the green flag for the green-white-checkered finish, Coulter plunged forward crossing the start finish line in the fourth position.

JOEY COULTER QUOTE:
What are your thoughts heading into the Atlanta 200 at Atlanta Motor Speedway?
"I learned a lot racing at Atlanta (Motor Speedway) last year. I know we have a lot of good notes for that track and will unload with good equipment. The No. 22 team has been riding momentum since our victory at Pocono (Raceway) a few weeks back, and I think we can capitalize on it again this weekend."
