Joey Logano watch begins
Joey Logano, the heir-apparent to the No. 20 Toyota at Joe Gibbs Racing, will be racing at Gateway International Raceway for a Nationwide Series race. He was asked before the race about his chances of moving into the Cup Series as the driver of the No. 20 car.
"Nothing has really changed," said Logano, who won the Toyota All-Star Showdown at Toyota Speedway at Irwindale last year. "It's pretty much the same deal. If they offer it to me, I'd take it. It's something that has been talked about but I'm not in a position to say anything. I don't really know what I'm going to do yet. Like I said before, I'm focused on the No. 20 Nationwide car right now and from there that is Joe (Gibbs) and J.D.'s (Gibbs) deal."
Logano did say he is a little surprised his name is in the discussion about driving the No. 20 car at the Cup level.
"I definitely think it's a cool thing to even have your name in the hat on that one," Logano said. "It's a great team and a great car. The car has won two championships with Tony driving it. The whole team has been together for so long and to be driving any car for Joe Gibbs Racing right now would be great. I'm just trying to make the best of my opportunities now. The only thing I've got set in stone right now is this Nationwide car so I'll make the best of it."
