Many are under the impression that Kenny Wallace’s dirt car only features Toyota stickers. No, it’s an actual Toyota engine in there. It’s an old engine from a NASCAR Camping World Truck Series team.

“What better way to race dirt racing than to go to all these race tracks throughout the United States with a sponsor that cares about the fans. Without them, I wouldn’t be where I’m at.”

“I wanna thank everybody at Toyota for believing in me. I represent them, the best that I can. Yes, I got everything done. Signed, sealed and delivered.”

“We are all in this together. Whether it’s Toyota, Chevrolet or Ford. We all need each other. I am so thankful to Toyota, for what they do. Not just me but for the sport.”

“Without Toyota coming in, years ago, there would just be two auto makers. They are solely responsible for the growth of NASCAR. Without them, we’d be lesser. I challenge anybody who doesn’t feel like that.”
