Sterling Marlin
No. 40 Coors Light Dodge Intrepid R/T
In 42 starts at Lowe’s Motor Speedway, Marlin has recorded six top-5s and 11 top-10s.
The car that Marlin is running at Charlotte (#115) is the same car that he won in at Michigan and came in fifth place in Kansas.
The No. 40 Dodge has a new headrest for the Charlotte event– it was manufactured at the CGR shop and is similar to Jeff Gordon and Jeff Burton’s headrest.
Marlin is currently fourth in overall NASCAR Winston Cup Series championship points. His highest championship finish ever is third (1995) when he won three races and scored nine top-5 finishes.
Marlin is the only driver to remain in the top-10 in NASCAR Winston Cup championship points all season.
Dominant Dodge: Marlin has lead the way for Dodge all season. He has eight top-fives and 14 top-10s. Marlin gave Dodge their first 2001 win in the Pepsi 400 at Michigan Speedway.
