Millington man hauls 'em, drives 'em at Auto City By Phil Pierson JOURNAL SPORTS WRITER Gregg Loudon has added a new twist to employer-employee relations. He takes his workers racing. Not to watch, but to compete. Every Saturday night since the middle of the summer, Loudon and some of his staff have been at Auto City racing pickup trucks. "Trucks have always been a hobby of mine," Loudon said.
"When I heard they were racing trucks there I went down there on a Thursday, got a copy of the rules and came back with a truck on Saturday night."
