NASCAR: David Gilliland to replace Robby Gordon

By ,

David Gilliland has been called in to replace driver/owner Robby Gordon at next weekend's NASCAR Sprint Cup race at Richmond.

Gordon, who is set to compete in an off-road truck racing event in Nevada will hand driving duties of his team's No. 7 car to Gilliland.

Robby Gordon Motorsports will be Gilliland's third team in as many races, following his outing in a TRG Motorsports Chevrolet at Bristol and in a Wood Brothers Ford at Atlanta.

Following Sunday's race, Gilliland is expected to swap between TRG Motorsports and Joe Gibbs Racing for the remainder of the season.
