Jimmy Johnson will make his oval debut as an IndyCar driver on Sunday at Texas as he tackles the full schedule this season.
A record seven wins, the most laps led in Texas Motor Speedway history and a resume so stout they renamed victory lane after him.
“I certainly have higher expectations for myself, but I’m not thinking I’m going to show up, qualify on pole, lead the most laps and win the race.” So 14 years after his first win at Texas, Johnson will now return to the 1.5-mile oval that was once his personal playground. He tested at the track last year with his Chip Ganassi Racing team to gauge his interest in running ovals, but a scheduled IndyCar test last week was scrubbed because of poor weather conditions.
