Driver change for the #18; Ickler in at Martinsville: Kyle Busch Motorsports owner-driver Kyle Busch, who was originally scheduled to pilot his #18 KBM Toyota Tundra in Saturday's Kroger 250 NASCAR Camping World Truck Series race at Martinsville (Va.) Speedway, has turned the driving duties over to KBM driver Brian Ickler. In turn, Busch will take over for Ickler in the #18 Tundra next weekend (April 2) at Nashville Superspeedway in Lebanon, Tenn. Saturday's 250-lap race around the .526-mile Martinsville Speedway oval will be the first in a KBM Tundra for the 24-year-old Ickler, who drove 11 Truck Series races for Billy Ballew Motorsports in 2009 with a pole position, two top-five and three top-10 finishes to his credit.(Kyle Busch Motorsports PR)(3-25-2010)~jayski

That's good. :) Ickler can get the experience he needs, especially since Martinsville is a tough little track.

You know I'm already looking forward to that... :roll: NOT!

It's good that Ickler can get seat time at Martinsville though.
