It became even more fascinating when Halmar Freisen Racing announced that Retzlaff&#8217;s No. 62 truck will be in conjunction with Legacy Motor Club. The entry will be sponsored by Sports Illustrated Resorts, which is also the race sponsor for the O&#8217;Reilly Series.<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p>Retzlaff has impressed in the No. 99 car for Viking Motorsports, so earning more track time is well deserved.
