Paulie Harraka will be making his first appearance at the Fort Worth track but his third intermediate size track start of the 2012 NASCAR Camping World Truck Series season.

"Each track we've been to this year has been completely new to me, and that's certainly been a big challenge," Paulie Harraka said. "The exciting thing for me about Texas is that, while it is certainly unique, it is a lot like Charlotte, so I feel like I have some idea of what to expect and what to focus on when we get there. Everybody has been warning me about the winds there, so I'm sure that that will present a new obstacle, but these are all lessons for me to learn!"-Wauters Motorsports
