 By: Tom Luttermoser Images By: Daphne Zhu of USC The 25 foot tall, 55 foot long NASCAR Rose Parade float is nearly finished. Adorned with the likeness of Gordon's Rainbow Warrior #24, Earnhardt's Intimidator #3 & the iconic Petty blue #43 along with elements of the L.A. Coliseum. Well race fans, it's ready for Monday's annual Pasadena parade. The float is named "Always Forward" and was made to celebrate NASCAR's 75th anniversary as well as market February's Busch Light Clash a few miles away. Atop the float will sit the King himself, Richard Petty who scored 200 NASCAR victories in his time behind the wheel. Petty represents the "where we came from" and the past. Petty will be joined by Craftsman Truck Series rookie Rajah Caruth who represents NASCAR's "where we are going" and the future. “NASCAR’s 75th anniversary is all about honoring our past, celebrating our present and looking to our future,” said NASCAR's VP of Marketing Services Patrick Rogers. “It’s only fitting that a driver like Rajah, who represents NASCAR’s now and beyond, joins our all-time winningest driver on this historic day for our sport.”  By Tom Luttermoser Image Via Rajah Caruth Twitter

With a full announcement not coming until Tuesday Dec. 6th, our friends over at tobychristie.com found out that place, (unofficially) Rajah will take the place of Jack Wood in GMS's #24 Chevrolet Silverado full-time in the Craftsman Truck Series for 2023.
