Throwback Thursday: Justin Lofton Finds Comfortable Home At Eddie Sharp Racing

by

_Attention, NASCAR fans… welcome to Throwback Thursday! Every week, from now until the start of the 2013 season we’ll be giving you, our readers the favorite stories we treasure from our writers over the past few seasons. Today we focus on Beth Lunkenheimer, one of the site’s Managing Editors who shares some pieces she’s treasured over the past 18 months._

_From Beth: This piece was my first, full-length feature based on an extended interview with a driver (instead of just a straight-up Q & A). I was so worried as I was writing that it wouldn’t work out; however, it turned out to be one of my favorites that I’ve ever written in my several years with the Frontstretch._

Early season leader Timothy Peters find himself just 25 points behind in what is likely now just a three horse race.
