Gibbs Finalize #18 & #20 Team Schedules; Kevin Conway to Run 7 Races in #18: Two new additions to Joe Gibbs Racing are Kevin Conway and Brad Coleman. The two drivers will split duties behind the wheel of the #18 Chevy in the Busch Series. Conway will drive eight races for sponsor Z-Line Designs, the nation's leading import manufacturer of home office, home entertainment and home décor ready-to-assemble furniture. The #18 team will run the full Busch Series schedule, with Joe Gibbs Racing drivers Tony Stewart and Aric Almirola completing the driver lineup. Stewart will drive the #18 in three races - one for Z-Line Designs, one for ConAgra and one for Goody's - while Almirola will represent ConAgra in six races. The #20 team will also run the full Busch Series schedule, with Denny Hamlin returning to the Rockwell Automation Chevy for 23 races while Almirola drives the Rockwell Automation machine in seven races. Z-Line Designs will sponsor the #20 car at Richmond in May with Hamlin at the wheel. And FedEx will sponsor the #20 at Memphis Tenn. There, Almirola will practice and qualify the car while Hamlin will run it in the race. Stewart's one drive in the #20 will come at the spring Atlanta race, where he'll carry Goody's sponsorship. Almirola will pilot the #20 in two additional races. Sponsorship announcements for those events will come later this season.(Joe Gibbs PR)(1-24-2007)
