Clint Bowyer competes for the 2006 NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series’ rookie-of-the-year honors in the No. 07 Jack Daniel’s Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS. Bowyer makes the step up to “The Show” with crew chief Gil Martin, who guided him to two victories a second-place finish in the 2005 NASCAR Busch Series point standings. A familiar voice on the radio and competing fulltime on the NASCAR Busch Series circuit will help speed up Bowyer’s learning curve.
