Johnny Davis has been affiliated with NASCAR competition for over 30 years, serving as a crew member, fabricator, and then crew chief for several Cup Series and Xfinity Series teams. Davis' first foray into team ownership was with competition Go-Karts in the 1990s. The team has since expanded and is located in a state-of-the-art 40,000+ square foot facility in Gaffney, South Carolina.

His best finish came at Talladega Superspeedway, where he finished 11th, when J. R. Robbs took over for three races with a best finish of 27th. Jason White then became the team's regular driver, and Shepherd moved to Davis' new No. 70 team. White drove for most of the season and had two top-twenty finishes in the No. 0 car, before Gus Wasson finished out the year in the car, finishing 29th at Atlanta Motor Speedway.
Multiple drivers (2004)
In 2004, Jimmy Kitchens drove the No. 0 car for the first four races of the season, but did not finish a race. Greg Sacks and Blake Mallory attempted a few races in the car but did not qualify. Mike Potter drove the car for two races before Kertus Davis came back to drive three times late in the season.
Kertus Davis (2005–2006)
For the 2005 season, Kertus Davis began driving the No. 0 full-time with Race Girl sponsoring. He competed in twenty-eight races with a top-ten at Talladega for his rookie season, and Rafael Martínez and Joe Fox served as relief drivers on road courses.
The team began the 2006 season under rumors that they would close due to sponsorship issues but remained open. Davis qualified for twenty-two races in that year, sharing the ride with Randy LaJoie and Morgan Shepherd.
The No. 0 team began the 2008 season with Kertus Davis qualifying at Daytona, however, his time was disallowed and he moved to the No. 01. Since Daytona, Dwayne Leik has run four races, Mike Potter has run two races, Danny Efland has been in the car for five races and Davis returned to the No. 0 car at Dover for one race. Larry Gunselman drove the car regularly for the balance of the season, with Wheeler Boys filling in on road courses. Danny O’Quinn Jr. began the season as the driver of the No. 0 car but moved over to the No. 01 after one race. J. C. Stout, Robert Richardson, Mark Green and Steve Grissom shared the car before Mike Wallace took over the driving duties.

J. McLeod in 2020.

B. J. McLeod drove this car for the first 4 races this season before moving to the 6 car. Jeffrey Earnhardt later drove this car for the rest of the season except road-course tracks while Mike Wallace drove this car. Wallace was later suspended indefinitely by NASCAR for actions detrimental to stock car racing, which led Jeffrey Earnhardt to run the car for the rest of the season, including Talladega. Earnhardt returned in 2021 but left to join Sam Hunt Racing's No. 24 and 26 cars on a limited schedule for the 2022 season.
The team would shut down at the end of the season with the team focusing instead on its purchase of the No. 01 car. Davis would enter a third car No. 00 for Mike Potter at the Milwaukee Mile in 2007 to fill out short Busch Series field.

A precisão para a cronologia das peças de Shakespeare (como foram primeiramente escritas ou realizadas) é impossível de determinar, uma vez que não existem registros e muitas das obras foram encenadas muitos anos antes de serem publicadas. As primeiras versões impressas de várias peças de teatro de Shakespeare são edições piratas, mas muitas obras shakespearianas permaneceram inéditas até o aparecimento do First Folio (1623).
