Seventh Race Stretch with Stremme in Nashville
Mooresville, NC (June 9, 2004) – Team TRIMSPA remains confident they can
continue to stay on top of their game as the team enters its’ eighth straight
race weekend, part of a 12-race stretch in the Busch Series schedule. A
rain-delayed race forced the TRIMSPA team to stay two extra days to complete last
weekend's race at Dover International Speedway. The Braun racing boys then
traveled straight to Chicagoland Speedway in Joliet, IL to test this week,
leading up to Saturday night’s race at Nashville Superspeedway.
“We had a great test in Chicago and improved on our intermediate track
program,” said Stremme. “The guys traveled for almost a week straight so it was
good to get back. But for me this job doesn't feel like work. I like racing
so much that it is like a vacation every day despite the long hours.”
Complicating the shortened workweek, the TRIMSPA team had to switch plans to
run Chassis 010, aka “David’s Favorite Car” this weekend after Stremme was
abruptly collected in a mid-race wreck at Dover. Despite challenges, Team
TRIMSPA remains optimistic as it heads into the eighth week of this long stretch
of Busch Series competition
“This schedule is not as hectic as it sounds,” said crew chief Randy Cox. “
It’s more of a laundry logistics problem than anything. The guys on the
TRIMSPA team are used to this travel. As far as having to repair our primary last
weekend, there is a positive side to it. Repairing these cars is a good time
to incorporate all of your latest ideas. When that’s done, the car will be
bigger and badder than before.”
To make sure the team does not lose a beat while the intended primary Dodge
is repaired, Cox has elected to bring out chassis 006 to compete this weekend
at Nashville Superspeedway. Chassis 006 has not been raced since Jamie
McMurray posted his fourth Busch victory in a row at Rockingham Speedway earlier
this season.
“Chassis 006 is the sister car to ‘David’s Favorite Car’,” said Cox. “He
led the race in Rockingham last fall with 006 and finished fifth. David hasn’
t raced it this year but Jamie has, and it’s been prepared and ready to go
ever since.”
Team TRIMSPA will be back on track this Saturday for the Federated Auto
Parts 300 Busch Series race at Nashville Superspeedway. The event will be
televised live Saturday, June 12th at 7:30 p.m. eastern time on FX and will
broadcast nationally at that same time on radio stations affiliated with Motor Racing
Network (MRN) and XM Satellite Radio Channel 144.
