Juan Pablo Montoya and No. 42 Texaco/Havoline Dodge at
Lowe's Motor Supeedway, October 13

Texaco/Havoline Team Facts:
NEXTEL Cup Series

• Charlotte Under the Lights: Juan Pablo Montoya and the Texaco/Havoline team were in the wrong place at the wrong time in May's 600-mile event at Lowe's Motor Speedway. Montoya slowed to avoid a multi-car wreck on lap 52, but was hit from behind and forced into the car in front of him. After spending 28 laps behind pit wall, Montoya returned to the track in the 38th position and gained 10 spots through attrition to finish 28th.



• Standings: Montoya remains 20th in the NASCAR NEXTEL Cup standings after his 15th-place finish at Talladega Superspeedway. He did gain significant points on the drivers ahead of him in the standings. He now sits 30 points out of 19th and just 46 points out of 17th.



• Meet Montoya: Montoya, along with his fellow Chip Ganassi Racing with Felix Sabates (CGRFS) drivers Reed Sorenson, David Stremme, Bryan Clauson and Memos Rojas (Grand-Am), will be taking a couple hours out of their fast-pace schedules on Friday, October 12, to stop by the CGRFS Concord, N.C., race shop to meet fans and sign autographs. The two-hour driver autograph session is scheduled to start at 11 a.m. and will run through 1 p.m. ET. Reservations are required.

He scored a 15th-place finish and took Raybestos® Rookie of the Race honors for the 13th time this season, including two of the last three races. Montoya leads David Ragan by 15 points (225-210) in the Raybestos® Rookie standings entering the October 13 Bank of America 500 at Lowe's Motor Speedway. Montoya is poised to become the fourth driver for Texaco/Havoline to earn the Raybestos Rookie honor (Davey Allison, Kenny Irwin and Jamie McMurray).



• Chassis: Crew Chief Donnie Wingo and the Texaco/Havoline team are bringing chassis #709 to Lowe's Motor Speedway this weekend for the 500-mile race. This is a new chassis in the CGRFS stable.
