Robby Gordon also has two trucks entered. An excerpt from another press release

Gordon, who will pull double duty by racing in the NASCAR Nextel Cup race the same weekend in Dover, Del., has entered two trucks in the class. Gordon, who won the 1996 SCORE Trophy-Truck season point championship, will drive the No. 89 SCORE Trophy-Truck and Andy McMillin, a third-generation SCORE desert racer, is running the entire 2006 SCORE Desert Series schedule in the No. 83 Team Gordon Chevy CK1500. Team Gordon is reportedly considering reducing to a one-truck effort in the No. 83 SCORE Trophy-Truck with Gordon driving the first half of the race before turning the wheel over to Andy McMillin and flying back to Dover.
