Despite tasting his first bit of success (win at Charlotte in the Truck Series), Justin Lofton has decided to scale back his NASCAR schedule next season.

He will, instead, focus his title aspirations towards the newly-formed Stadium Super Trucks Series organized by Robby Gordon. Before moving to NASCAR, Lofton fancied a career in off-road racing. His background and long-time friendship with Gordon helped the Stadium Truck deal come together pretty quickly. Lofton hasn't finalized his 2013 NASCAR schedule yet but expects to run at least 10 Truck Series races on tracks longer than a mile. He added that he's not overly excited about the new direction of the Truck Series with road courses, dirt and short tracks all returning to the schedule due to the costs involved with racing on those circuits.

Justin Lofton personified the “sophomore slump” phenomenon in 2011.

After a solid 2010 rookie season where he scored four top fives and eight top 10s en route to a 12th place points finish, Lofton failed to score a single top-five in 2011. There was little reason to believe he’d be a factor in 2012. He shirked those beliefs, big time. Driving for Eddie Sharp Racing, Lofton captured his first NASCAR Camping World Truck Series win at Charlotte and finished eighth in points. Scoring a career-high 13 top 10s, Lofton also won his first Keystone Pole Award, at Chicagoland Speedway.-NASCAR IMC
