From The Third Turn, a Wikia wiki
Jerry Robertson(born January 2, 1962 in Denver, Colorado) is a champion NASCAR driver. He began his racing career as a high school senior at Colorado National Speedway and won eight races, garnering the Rookie of the Year title. Over the next 12 years, he was a fixture on the national dirt-track racing scene, winning 126 times. In 1994, he switched to paved racing, and was named Roookie of the Year and champion in the NASCAR Grand American Modified Division. After being named "Oval Track Driver of the Year", he ran in the NASCAR Northwest Regional Championship series, winning titles in 2003 and 2004. In 2005, he signed up with the fledging Furniture Row Racing, and ran ten races. He also made his Nextel Cup debut at Phoenix International Raceway, finishing 41st after suffering engine faliure.
Robertson was expected to run for Furniture Row in the Nextel Cup Series for the majority of 2006. However, without a guarantee of making the show, Robertson has been scaled back to the Busch Series while Kenny Wallace runs the Cup effort. So far, Robertson has a best finish of 29th at Richmond.
Also, Robertson has raced eight times in the Craftmsan Truck Series without much sucess.
