Donny Lia Among Double Duty
Entrants at
Pocono Raceway
(TOLEDO, Ohio) - Donny Lia, once a
winner in the
NASCAR Camping World Truck
Series, will drive the No. 55 Toyota for
Venturini Motorsports in Saturday's Weis
Markets 125, the 11th race of the
ARCA Racing Series presented by
RE/MAX and Menards season. Lia, along
with
Chad McCumbee and
Chase Mattioli, will perform
double duty on Saturday at Pocono
Raceway, as all three are entered in the
NASCAR Camping World Truck Series race
as well as the Weis Markets 125.
Lia, who made two ARCA Racing Series
starts in 2006 for owner Matt Hagans, is
entered in place of
Steve Arpin, who for the second
consecutive race will be absent as part
of his driver development commitment
with
JR Motorsports in the NASCAR
Nationwide Series.
A 31-year-old from
Jericho, N.Y., Lia won in a 2008
Camping World Truck Series race at
Mansfield Motorsports Park and is
a veteran of 110 starts on the
NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour,
having amassed 15 victories. Lia will
drive the No. 21 Chevrolet in Saturday's
Truck Series event, which is scheduled
to start at 1 p.m., two hours before the
Weis Markets 125.
"The Venturinis have helped produce some
really successful drivers in recent
years.
Joey Logano,
Justin Allgaier and Brian Scott
all raced here. Now
Mikey Kile has won here,
and Steve Arpin has two wins with these
guys. This is just another great
opportunity for me to get some
more experience in really good
equipment," Lia said.
McCumbee is no stranger to double duty
at Pocono Raceway. In June 2007,
McCumbee scored his second career ARCA
victory at the 2.5-mile triangular track
just one day before making his NASCAR
Sprint Cup Series debut.
McCumbee has steadily improved
race-by-race in his second stint with
owner
Andy Belmont and the No. 1 Ford,
achieving a season-best sixth-place
finish at Mansfield just 10 days ago. He
will drive the No. 28 Chevrolet in the
Truck Series race.
Mattioli will return to the ARCA Racing
Series after two races away, having last
competed at
Michigan International Speedway
in June. A grandson of Pocono Raceway
owners Dr. Joe and Rose Mattioli, the
20-year-old Fordham University student
will drive the Stacy Compton-owned No.
64 Chevrolet in the Truck Series race
before stepping back into the No. 17
Roulo Brothers Racing Ford for the ARCA
event.
Though Lia, McCumbee, and Mattioli are
currently the only three drivers entered
in both Saturday races, the addition of
the Camping World Truck Series race to
the Pocono schedule is a clear benefit
for the ARCA Racing Series, as Truck
Series teams and owners - as well as the
existing
Sprint Cup teams historically on
hand - will have a clear view of the
rising ARCA talent on site at one of
racing's most complex tracks.
Practice and Menards Pole Qualifying
presented by Ansell for the Weis Markets
125 take place Friday, July 30, with
live coverage of the Weis Markets 125
airing on SPEED at 3 p.m. Eastern on
Saturday, July 31. In addition to the
live television coverage,
ARCARacing.com will host live
audio coverage and live timing and
scoring presented by ARCA Nation.
The ARCA Racing Series presented by
RE/MAX and Menards features 20 events at
17 tracks on its 2010 schedule. The
series has crowned an ARCA national
champion each year since its inaugural
season in 1953, and has toured over 200
racetracks in 28 states since its
inception. The series tests the
abilities of drivers and race teams over
the most diverse schedule of stock car
racing events in the world, annually
visiting tracks ranging from 0.4 mile to
2.66 miles in length, on both paved and
dirt surfaces as well as left- and
right-turn street and road courses.
Founded by
John Marcum in 1953 in Toledo,
Ohio, the
Automobile Racing Club of America
(ARCA) is recognized among the leading
sanctioning bodies in the country.
Closing in on completing its sixth
decade after hundreds of thousands of
miles of racing, ARCA administers over
100 race events each season in two
professional touring series and local
weekly events.
