Original:
Truck Series sponsor Camping World will back Grant Enfinger in Friday night’s race at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
But instead of Enfinger’s usual No. 98 ride at ThorSport Racing, the 2019 regular season champion will pilot CR7 Motorsports’ No. 9 truck usually driven by Codie Rohrbaugh.
The sponsorship was revealed by Camping World CEO Marcus Lemonis on Twitter.
Thanks @marcuslemonis @CampingWorld for making things happen! Thanks to Codie and all of the Rohrbaugh family for letting me hop in the truck @LVMotorSpeedway Also big thanks to @ThorSportRacing Duke/Rhonda for letting me have some fun this weekend. I’ll be in the 98 for Atlanta https://t.co/6STCQu7GUd

Enfinger is not racing full-time in 2021. The six-time series winner is splitting the season in the No. 98 with former Kyle Busch Motorsports driver Christian Eckes.
Enfinger finished 11th in the season-opener at Daytona and Eckes placed 10th on the Daytona road course.
Meanwhile, Lemonis isn’t stopping with Enfinger. He put out call for any other teams that are unsponsored this weekend.

Awesome offer from Marcus Lemonis and Camping World. I like the incentive payouts also! Glad to see Enfinger in the 9 this week. I was hoping other owners would come forth and offer him some rides after being demoted to part time. I’d love to see Enfinger win the championship this year in a pieced together campaign. You know, when the world gives you lemons…
