Havens will make his second start for the Thompson Motorsports team in his first visit to the quarter-mile oval at Stockton. He is coming of an eighth place performance back on April 14 and is looking forward to the challenge that Stockton provides. "We've been really fortunate and had really good finishes to start out the year with both the K&N (Pro Series) car and our super  late model," Havens stated. "It's been a lift to our program to be successful with the new K&N ride, and really has boosted my confidence as a driver." "The first race (Havasu) was a 'getting to know each other' event,  and now that we've done that we can just focus on going out andgetting to the front. Thompson Motorsports racecars are always  fast and well prepared so I'm excited to get back behind the wheel  of the No. 61 at Stockton this weekend."
