Gaulding looks to do Doughnuts on National Doughnut Day


Coming off a solid top-10 finish at “The Madhouse” Bowman Gray Stadium, a 0.25 mile flat asphalt oval in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, Gray Gaulding and the Krispy Kreme TruMoo Milk Toyota team do a 180 degree turn and head to the 0.875 mile, 14 degrees of banking, fast D-shaped Iowa Speedway in Newton, IA.

“It’s night and day difference that’s for sure,” explains Gaulding talking about the transition from Bowman Gray to Iowa Speedway. “At Bowman Gray it’s all about survival but at Iowa both the technology side and the driver’s stamina really come into play.”

On June 7, 2013, Gaulding and the Krispy Kreme Racing team will hit the track for the opening 90 minute practice session from 11:00 to 12:30 p.m. Final practice will begin at 1:30 p.m. and continue through 2:30 p.m. Fans are encouraged to come meet Gray during the 45 minute driver autograph session which is scheduled for 3:15 p.m. Qualifying is set for 5:00 p.m. with the green flag dropping on the Casey’s General Store 150 at 8:00 p.m. all times are Central Standard Time.

A lot of people compare Iowa Speedway to Richmond International Raceway.


“Iowa Speedway and RIR do have a lot of similarities,” said Gaulding “Iowa is a little bigger but you race them both the same with the semi-banked corners. We were fast last month at RIR and hope to keep the momentum rolling at Iowa.”

Doug George on Iowa Speedway

Doug George crew chief of the #20 Krispy Kreme TruMoo Milk Toyota Camry has chosen chassis 1888 for the Casey’s General Store 150 at Iowa Speedway. “We raced this car earlier in the season at Bristol Motor Speedway and it showed a lot of speed. The guys have spent a lot of hours in this car to have it ready for Iowa.”
