Lee Pulliam Returns to Martinsville Ahead of First Full-Time NASCAR Season

Lee Pulliam spent years establishing himself as one of Late Model Stock Car racing’s most accomplished drivers. Now, at 38, he’s preparing for his first full-time season in NASCAR’s O’Reilly Auto Parts Series. But first, he’s returning to a track where he’s already proven he belongs. Pulliam will drive Peterson Racing’s No. 87 Chevrolet in Saturday’s National Debt Relief 250 at Martinsville Speedway, the same track where he made his series debut with JR Motorsports in March. He finished fifth in that race after leading 40 laps, showing he could compete against established national series drivers.
