  • Johnny Van Doorn Aiming For Three-Peat; Prepares For Climb Up

    COOPERSVILLE, Michigan (March 22, 2011) – – Johnny Van Doorn otherwise known as “JVD” is patiently leaving his legacy in short track racing. That legacy has the chance to build momentum as the Coopersville, Michigan native announced that he will return to the Champion Racing Association (CRA) aiming for a third consecutive title in 2011.

      Van Doorn though hopes to use accomplishments on the short track to climb the ladder and move up the racing ranks with an aim at the ARCA Racing Series presented by Menards as a stepping stone to his hopeful eventual placement in NASCAR.

      JVD driving the No. 61 Chevrolet Impala for Kaos Motorsports is one of the pre-race favorites when the CRA opens the curtain on their season-opener at Anderson Speedway in Anderson, Indiana on April 16.   “I’m really excited about returning to the CRA Series in 2011,” said Van Doorn, the 2007 CRA Series Rookie of the Year. “It meant a lot not only to myself but my team to win the championship again in 2010 and we feel that we have all the components to defend that title beginning at Anderson.”

      He continued, “my dream is to someday reach the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series. I’m not expecting that climb to be easy but I’m prepared to work for it, much like I have done for everything in racing. I know I cannot do it though without the support of my family, friends and sponsors.”   “CRA is my main objective in 2011 but I would like to methodically enter the ARCA Racing Series at some point and begin the transition to the bigger heavier cars. Both the CRA Series and ARCA are development ladders that can help make dreams come true.”

      Despite carrying a quiet; under the radar profile at the track, Van Doorn remains focused on giving his Kaos Motorsports all he can behind the wheel.

      “I could go on forever about my team,” he boasted. “My guys are great. They work hard, play hard and have fun. This is what racing is about. Most importantly though, they are in this because they all believe in me. That’s something that words cannot describe. So, I just try to make it up to them on the track.”

      To support his quest in 2011, JVD and Co. are appreciative to have the support of Baker Engineering, Earth Service and Supply, Jegs.com, Magic Transportation, Paragon Corvette Reproductions, Port City Racecars and R and R Wire Loom as sponsors on their Chevrolet bowtie.

      “It really means a lot to have the sponsor support that we have,” Van Doorn explained. “We could always use more support but while we continue that project, we’re just thankful and blessed to have what we do. Hopefully, we can kick off the season with a “w” next month.”

      In 64 races, Van Doorn has posted six poles, eight wins, 25 top-fives and 47 top-10 finishes including back-to-back CRA championships in 2009 and 2010.

  • A.J. Frank Stalled In New Smyrna

    NEW SMYRNA, Florida (March 22, 2011) – – USARacing Pro Cup Series veteran A.J. Frank had high hopes for New Smyrna (Fla.) Speedway in the 2011 season-opener. Unfortunately, an engine failure in the final practice prevented Frank and his Odle Motorsports team from competing in the USARacing Pro Cup 250 presented by Kangaroo Express.

      Leading up to the final practice, Frank showed that he had a car to contend with and likely could have been the man to beat in his first tango at New Smyrna. The team now only wonders what if.

      “It’s a real blow to our team,” said Frank, who had hopes of making his 79th career USARacing start. “We had a good car. We didn’t even put new tires on it and it was still fast. Unfortunately, she just grenaded in final practice without any serious warning.   I want to thank Chip Lofton and the entire Matt Lofton Motorsports team for attempting to allow our team to borrow a motor. We tried everything we could; we just couldn’t get it to fit into the car. I also want to thank Speedco and Lucas Oil for their continued faith in me and my career. We’ll bounce back and not let this obstacle stand in our way.”

      Currently, Frank and his group are exploring their options for a new motor in their No. 56 Speedco / Lucas Oil Chevrolet Impala. “We’re working a lot of different angles. Hopefully we’ll be able to have a solution here soon and we’ll make sure we let everyone know what’s transpired.”

      The next USARacing Pro Cup Series event is scheduled for Friday, April 1st at Ace Speedway in Altamahaw, North Carolina.

    MIKE SWEENEY AND A.M. PERFORMANCE ARE TEAMING UP TO RAISE FUNDING FOR THE LEUKEMIA AND LYMPHOMA SOCIETY

    Scotts Valley, California – March 21st, 2011- In an effort to make a positive impact in the community at large, has brought his relationship with the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society (LLS) with him to A.M. Performance for this year’s GRAND AM Continental Tire Challenge Sports Car Challenge season. Sweeney became involved with LLS in 2010 and will be helping them to raise awareness and funding for research throughout the year. He was recently honored when the Society chose him to be a candidate for their Man of the Year campaign. To donate please click here:

    [media-credit name=”Mike Sweeney” align=”alignleft” width=”157″][/media-credit]Over the next ten weeks Sweeney will be trying to raise as much funding as possible as he competes to win the prestigious award. This is typically among the most effective fundraising campaigns that LLS does every year, with candidates nationwide raising over $11 million last year. 100% of every donation goes directly to research to both find a cure for blood-borne cancers long-term, and to provide patient support and help find less debilitating treatments in the short-term.

    “I am both thrilled and honored to have been nominated for this program. Frankly, it’s not the title, but the chance to contribute to these researchers, doctors, and patients, while representing a fantastic organization that really gets me fired up,” said Sweeney. “We have a chance here to make a real difference, and to use our racing to bring attention to such a worthy cause makes me realize how lucky I am. I have to offer a huge thank you to LLS for inviting me to be a part of this program, and to A.M. Performance for giving us the platform we need to promote it. Now let’s show them what GRAND-AM fans can do and raise some money!”

    In recent years, there have been significant breakthroughs in our understanding of how to treat blood-borne cancers, and with revolutionary new treatments just around the corner, it is obvious that a hope for a cure for blood cancers has never been greater. However, there are extremely limited federal funds available for these researchers, meaning they rely on contributions from private and corporate donors. Unfortunately, the importance of a campaign of this nature is never realized until a family member or friend is afflicted with this terrible disease. Your donation will save lives!

    It doesn’t matter how much you can afford to give, every little bit helps! So whether you pledge $5 or $5000, we thank you for entering the fight against blood cancers. The easiest way to give is to simply go to this link: and click on the link to donate now! You contribution is tax-deductible and much appreciated.

    Mike Sweeney and the A.M. Performance team will make their GRAND-AM debut April 7-9 during the Barber 200 at Barber Motosports Park. For more information please visit www.amperformanceracing.com and www.facebook.com/amperformance.

    About the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS):

    The mission of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) is: Cure leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin’s disease and myeloma, and improve the quality of life of patients and their families. When LLS was founded in 1949, a blood cancer diagnosis was almost always fatal. Thanks in part to innovative research funded by LLS, survival rates have doubled, tripled and even quadrupled for blood cancer patients. Still, there is much work to do. For instance these diseases are still the leading killer of children under 20. LLS is the world’s largest voluntary health agency dedicated to blood cancer. LLS funds lifesaving blood cancer research around the world and provides free information and support services.

  • Pennzoil to be Under the Hood of Top IZOD IndyCar Series Teams

    Pennzoil UltraTM Euro 5W-40 Approved for use in Honda Engines

    Houston, Texas (March 22, 2011) – After a 20-year absence from IndyCar racing, Pennzoil is returning to the sport in a big way. In addition to being back on the track through the brand’s multi-year alliance with Penske Racing and Penske Corporation, the brand’s premium Pennzoil Ultra™ Euro 5W-40 motor oil has been approved for use in all Honda Indy V8 engines that will compete in the 2011 IZOD IndyCar Series. And the Pennzoil Ultra Euro formulation that will be used by IndyCar’s top teams is the motor oil available to consumers today.

    “Pennzoil is no stranger to Indy racing, so we are happy to add Pennzoil Ultra Euro 5W-40 to the short list of motor oils approved to keep our engines in pristine condition and working at optimum efficiency,” said Roger Griffiths, Technical Director of Honda Performance Development. “The engines we build are designed to deliver extremely high power outputs and reach very high engine speeds in each race, and our dyno testing has demonstrated that Pennzoil Ultra provides the top-tier lubrication performance that our engines require.”

    In 2011, Pennzoil embarks on a multi-year alliance with Penske that expands Pennzoil’s motorsports presence to include the IZOD IndyCar Series. Pennzoil will be a primary sponsor of the No. 3 Shell V-Power-Pennzoil Ultra Dallara/Honda, driven by three-time Indianapolis 500 champion Helio Castroneves. Pennzoil Ultra Euro 5W-40 will be running in not only Helio’s IndyCar, but the cars of each of his Penske Racing teammates, Ryan Briscoe and Will Power, as well.

    Pennzoil has a long history of involvement in motorsports, beginning with Russ Snowberger in 1930. Pennzoil’s history in Indy car racing has been highlighted victories by esteemed drivers Johnny Rutherford (1980), Rick Mears (1984, 1988), Danny Sullivan (1985) and Al Unser (1987).

    “The opportunity to be in the engines of some of the top teams in Indy racing provides us with an environment to test our lubricants in extreme conditions,” said Pennzoil Global Brand Manager Debbie Van Schalkwyk. “Pennzoil scientists gain insights from the track that can be translated directly into the formulation of our consumer motor oils.”

    Pennzoil Ultra became a reality through the incredibly high standard set by the Pennzoil brand and delivered by Shell Lubricants technology teams around the world. Years of collaboration resulted in a Pennzoil Ultra formulation that helps to keep engines as close to factory clean as possible, and far exceeds the most stringent car manufacturer standards for cleanliness and protection[1] – going beyond just lubricating and protecting an engine.

    The Hyper Cleansing TechnologyTM built into Pennzoil UltraTM plays a critical role in the engine. The oil lubricates moving engine parts to reduce friction and power loss, and helps keep the engine clean by seeking out and dissolving contaminants safely into the oil before they form deposits in the engine.

    Pennzoil UltraTM is available in SAE 5W-20, 5W-30, 5W-40, 10W-30 and 10W-60 viscosities. Pennzoil UltraTM 5W-20, 5W-30 and 10W-30 viscosities can be found in major automotive retailers nationwide. Ordering information for Pennzoil UltraTM Euro 5W-40 and 10W-60 viscosities as well as additional information can be found at www.pennzoil.com .

  • Ryan Wilson Gaining Momentum At Caraway Speedway

    ASHEBORO, North Carolina (March 21, 2011) – – Ryan Wilson driver of the No. 12 Randolph Bank Toyota Camry delivered two top-10 finishes at Caraway (N.C.) Speedway Saturday night but for the Randleman, North Carolina native the finishes weren’t good enough.

    Wilson rebounded nicely after a mechanical malfunction resulted in a 14th place finish the week before at Caraway (N.C.) Speedway but after grabbing the pole and drawing second in the first 50-lap event on Saturday night, Wilson battled handling during the quick shootout and slid in the eighth position.

    Starting ninth in the second feature, a series of adjustments by the Ryan Wilson Motorsports (RWM) team paid off with the No. 12 Randolph Bank Toyota Camry skillfully maneuvering through the field to post a third place finish.

    “The finishes were a solid rebound from the week before but I’m not satisfied,” said the determined Wilson. “We just couldn’t dial in our No. 12 Randolph Bank Toyota Camry. We were much better the second race than we were the first race but still we weren’t quick enough to get in victory lane. We’ll keep digging and come back next week and try again.”

    The winner of last Fall’s Richard Petty Driver Search II was outspoken about his initiative at Caraway (N.C.) Speedway. “We’re here to win and eventually take home the championship,” Wilson sounded. “We have a great team and are blessed to have such incredible support from the folks at Randolph Bank. I don’t take losing easy, but I guess that’s the intense racer in me. We’ll regroup this week and try again next Saturday night.”

    Round three for the NASCAR Whelen All-American Series at Caraway resumes on Saturday, March 26 with a 100-lap event beginning shortly after 7:00 p.m. Eastern.

  • Bryan Silas Rockets To Top-Five At New Smyrna In USAR Competition

    NEW SYMRNA BEACH, Florida (March 21, 2011) – – Stuart, Florida native Bryan Silas wowed the crowd in the USARacing Pro Cup Series season-opener at New Smyrna (Fla.) Speedway last Saturday night after he drove his Bryan Silas Racing (BSR) machine to a stout fifth place finish in the USARacing Pro Cup 250 presented by Kangaroo Express.

    The finish was a career-best effort for the 23-year old in 21 career USAR starts. Before Saturday night’s contest, Silas’s best finish came in his USARacing Pro Cup Series debut in 2009 at Rockingham (N.C.) Speedway where he placed his No. 11 Rockingham Speedway / Palm Beach Grading Ford Fusion eighth after starting 23rd.

    “We kind of flew under the radar this past weekend,” said Silas. “We didn’t make a big deal about coming out here because we wanted to show up and just race. Dave (McClure, crew chief) did a fabulous job all day long. The car was really solid and I had a great time.”

    It was not even during the intense 250-lap event that losing a lap on pit road during a caution would stall Silas’s drive. His determination to cautiously thread the needle and tackle an extremely tight handling Ford Fusion would pay dividends. Obtaining the lucky dog during a late race caution allowed the prime opportunity for Silas to strut his stuff. He would surge his blue oval from the back of the pack and masterfully deliver his first USAR top-five.

    “The adrenaline can get you going,” Silas said. “We had a mishap in the pits. It’s just one of those racing things. I knew that even though our car was tight we still had something we could race with. Thankfully, everything played out and we were able to show what our BSR team is really capable of.”

    New Smyrna also marked the return of Bryan Silas Racing (BSR) led by his ARCA crew chief Dave McClure. “It was a total team effort,” he said. “Dave and the rest of the team wanted to run good right out of the box to show that our foundation is solid. The finish wasn’t easy, but results don’t come without hard work.”

    Undoubtedly, the finish also rejuvenates the driver’s confidence just about in time for the ARCA Racing Series presented by Menards to resume their schedule with an approaching event at Talladega (Ala.) Superspeedway on April 15.

    “Anytime you run good, it makes you feel good,” Silas admitted. “The USARacing Pro Cup Series is full of some of short track racing’s finest. We’ll take this momentum from New Smyrna; see what’s next on our plate in USAR while we focus ahead on Talladega in ARCA.”

  • Russell Shows the way at Auburndale

    Russell Shows the way at Auburndale

    A near capacity crowd filled the grandstands at Auburndale Speedway to see race number two in the twelve race series of the newly formed Florida United Promoters Late Model Series. This series is the result of six hard working, dedicated race promoters with a common goal of revitalizing late model racing in the Sunshine State.

    [media-credit name=”Chuck Green” align=”alignright” width=”272″][/media-credit]Twenty-four teams would make the pull to Auburndale for this race including race one winner Anthony Campi. Odds on favorite, a regular at Auburndale, Jeff Scofield would also expect to contend for the victory. Other notables including the teams of Tim Russell, Joe Winchell, Wayne Anderson, and Joe Boyd would surely be a factor in the outcome of this race.

    Auburndale would live up to its reputation as Florida’s’ fastest quarter mile Track with qualifying times below fifteen seconds. Wayne Anderson would post the quickest time, with Tim Russell, Jeff Scofield, Jesse Dutilly, and Joe Winchell rounding out the top five. Per series rules a blind draw among the fastest qualifiers would determine the starting grid for the 100 lap feature event.

    The crowd was excited as the cars lined up for the start of the race as local favorite Jeff Scofield was on the pole, and would bring the field to the green. Flanking Scofield on the outside of row one was the car of Tim Russell, the winner of race one, Anthony Campi would start third, fast qualifier Anderson would start on the outside of row four in the eighth position. As the cars came to the green, a four car tangle on the front stretch would cause race officials to rerack and start again. The second attempt would fare better, Scofield would jump out front with Russell on his rear bumper, and again the pace was slowed by a single car spin in turn two. The restart would see Scofield on the point with Russell, Campi, and the ride of Jesse Dutilly all in pursuit. The running order would remain the same through several more yellows, all for single car spins, a restart on lap 40 would see Scofield on the inside, Russell on the outside in a side by side battle for the lead, the two drivers would stay like this for another five laps when Russell was able to clear Scofield with a pass on the outside. Tim would build a three second lead over Scofield and seemed to be on cruise control. At the halfway point the order would be Russell out front, Scofield second, Campi running third, Dutilly fourth, and Daniel Webster rounding out the top five. The running order would remain the same until lap 67 when the red flag came out for a grinding crash in turn one. Steve Doer who was running in the top fifteen drove deep into turn one, slower traffic forced Steve up, and out of the groove, and he slammed the outside wall nearly head on. Everyone held their breath waiting for a sign that Doer was okay, after several minutes Steve exited the car and assisted the wrecker crew to get what was left of the car on a flatbed. Talking with Steve Monday following the incident he told us they were able to salvage the engine, transmission, and seat, the rest of the car would go to scrap. Most importantly, other than being very sore from the impact Steve suffered no injuries from his wreck.

    After a thirty minute delay to clean the track, the cars would restart with Russell on the point and Scofield close behind. Again Russell would pull away from his pursuers and would never be challenged again. A late caution would set up a green white checker finish and Russell would not be denied taking the victory. In victory lane Russell thanked his sponsors, family and friends, and gave credit to the promoters that have made this series possible. Jeff Scofield finished second with Daniel Webster Third, Joe Winchell Fourth, and Wayne Anderson completing the top five.

    The next stop for the United late model is April 2nd at Lake City Speedway in Lake City Florida.

    New content, video and photography will be continued to be added all year long, giving fans a chance to revisit some of the greatest moments of Ford’s past 110 years in racing.

    Another part of the site is 110th Anniversary Sweepstakes, where fans can register for a chance to win the grand prize of a Ford Racing dream weekend in 2012. Five grand prize winners will get to choose a VIP weekend experience for two at one of the following 2012 events: NASCAR’s Daytona 500, NHRA’s Winternationals in Pomona, Homestead-Miami Speedway’s Grand-Am event in March, or Rally America’s X Games in July.
