Furniture Row Racing is on NASCAR's fast track thanks to a new alliance with Joe Gibbs Racing. 

Driver Martin Truex Jr. believes the partnership will pay huge dividends for the Denver-based single-car team.  

"It's been great to work with those guys really.  In between the four of the them there's a lot of wins", said Truex. "There's a lot to pull from there".

The driver of the 78-car says the team is building on the momentum from last year.

Four of the five drivers in the partnership have drivers are in the top ten, including Truex who is ninth in the standings. 

"I'm all ears trying to learn as much as I can from those guys and hey if they have a question for me, I'll be honored to answer them," Truex said.

Those drivers include Denny Hamlin, Kenseth, Carl Edwards and Kyle Busch.

"When you have a good alliance like this and good teammates you always wanna finish in front of them. There's always gonna be four losers and one winner on any given weekend but you hopefully you're on the good end of that,"  Hamlin said.
