Andy Pilgrim to run road course events for JR Motorsports


From Jayski.com:

Pilgrim to Drive for JR Motorsports at Montreal & Watkins Glen: JR Motorsports announced that road racing veteran Andy Pilgrim will drive the #88 Navy Chevy in the Busch races at Circuit Gilles Villeneuve and Watkins Glen International. For team owner Dale Earnhardt Jr., the opportunity to have Pilgrim in the #88 Navy Chevy not only puts a road course ace in his teams car, it also allows him to fulfill a promise his dad, Dale Earnhardt, made to Pilgrim several years ago. Earnhardt Jr. and his dad teamed up with Kelly Collins and Pilgrim to race a Chevy Corvette in the 2001 Rolex 24 at Daytona. Pilgrim tutored both Earnhardts on how to maneuver the lighter car. The team finished fourth overall out of 79 teams, and the elder Earnhardt promised to one day give Pilgrim a chance to drive one of his cars in NASCAR competition.(JR Motorsports PR)(7-19-2007)
