Gilliland gets a ride for Sunday.
The former Chino Hills and Riverside resident, who won the pole at Daytona two years ago but was squeezed out of the Yates Racing lineup to start this season, will drive the No. 71 TRG Motorsports Chevrolet at his home track Sunday.
From http://www.sportingnews.com/yourturn/viewtopic.php?t=518797:
Gilliland, who was not on the preliminary entry list for the Auto Club 500, drove the No. 38 Yates Racing Ford last season. He remains under contract with Yates, which approved his driving for TRG. Since TRG is outside the top 35 in owner points, Gilliland must qualify based on speed to make the race. Slugger Labbe will be the crew chief for the team.TRG Motorsports officials say they plan to enter the No. 71 Chevrolet in the next four races in an attempt to lock into the top 35 in owner points, a position that would guarantee the car a starting spot in races. The team attempted to make the field for the season-opening Daytona 500 with Mike Wallace driving but missed that race.
