Clint Bowyer and RCR to team up with Ice Road Truckers

Here is one to file under "okay...". Directv has teamed up with Richard Childress Racing and History Channel's non-Adolf Hitler related program, Ice Road Truckers for new segments on the tv show featuring the #07 team of Clint Bowyer.

These little segments will compare the equipment that the race team uses to the equipment that the truckers use.

So does that mean RCR has something for these kind of situations?
