This is great news for the SST series IMO...

Totally agree JR . Great to see him coming home to offroad .

This is BIG news, but not surprising because RG was sponsoring some of his NASCAR efforts. He's going to be fun to watch! I will now get my ticket to a race, just not sure which one yet!

I believe the interview say's more about the state of Nascar's Truck series then it does about Justin focusing on the SST series.IMO

thats going to be another great reason to fallow the new series. i cant wait. he sure looked like he was on his a game @ the last dez race in jean nv.

He's on sirius now!

Chocolate Meyers said he would drive in anything including a golf cart because Robby Gordon has no fear and will do what ever it takes to scare the crap out of you!!! Nice big plug for SST!!!

AMEN ! At least 1 person from NASCRAP respects Robby .

2nd that motion

Think this is a great addition to SSTs. Great for the series.

Justin running in the SSTs is already paying off . The series gets a mention about every 5 mins on Speed Channel's bottom line . The quote says " Justin Lofton announces he will scale back his 2013 NCWTS schedule so he can compete in Robby Gordon's Stadium Super Truck Series " .
