Kenseth will make his 72nd start in the Busch Series at Gateway this weekend. Matt grabbed a second place finish at St. Louis last year, leaving Gateway second in the championship points race, behind Dale Earnhardt, Jr. Matt will be running the same Monte Carlo he raced with at Myrtle Beach Speedway earlier in July, where he grabbed a third place finish.
