“The opportunity to drive for one of my closest friends and mentor, Bobby Dotter, is a true honor for me,” stated Gaulding. “I’ve never been more driven in my career to show everybody what we are capable of doing with this group of guys. I’m looking forward to fighting for a victory here in Daytona with our Pure Camaro. We plan on turning heads all season, and it all starts this weekend here in Daytona.”
