HT Motorsports Owner Jim Harris on the Driver Change: “We want to thank Terry (Cook) for his hard work and efforts for this HT Motorsports Racing Team this year. We have worked with Terry on and off for a few years in the Camping World Truck Series and see him as a key component in building HT Motorsports to what it is today. He is a huge advocate for the NCWTS series and we wish him the best in his racing career.”
Mike Bliss on Phoenix International Raceway: “Phoenix (International Raceway) always proves to put on a good show in the Truck Series. Even though it is a short track, Phoenix gives you plenty of room to pass and maneuver down the straightaways. It’s easy to get caught up in someone else’s mess at PIR but it actually gives you more time to react there than the other short tracks on the series. I have a lot of fun racing in Phoenix so I am looking forward to racing there for HT Motorsports.”
