BORIS SAID AND MIKE DAVIS TO COMPETE AT INFINEON
SONOMA, Calif. ‹ Defending Trans-Am Series for the BFGoodrich® Tires Cup
Drivers¹ Champion Boris Said plans to compete in the Trans-Am 100, part of
the NASCAR weekend at Infineon Raceway, June 20-22. Joining Said will be his
ACS Express Racing team owner Mike Davis.
Said, driver of the No. 33 ACS/GE Access/Sun Microsystems Ford Mustang, is
returning to the Trans-Am Series after a two-race suspension, levied for
conduct in contravention of Trans-Am Series rules during the Grand Prix of
Long Beach weekend. Davis will drive the No. 11 ACS/GE Access/Sun
Microsystems Ford Mustang.
³I am glad we are able to bury the hatchet and put our differences aside now
that the suspension is over,² said Said, who finished second in the season
opener at St. Petersburg after starting last, and won Round 2 at Long Beach.
³Trans-Am is the Series I have always loved and I am hoping that we can put
this all behind us and get back to racing.²
³Boris is an immensely talented race car driver and brings a lot to the
Trans-Am Series,² said Trans-Am Series Chief Steward Terry Dale. ³We¹re
pleased with his decision to move forward, and we¹re delighted he¹s decided
to return to the Series.
³We can now put this episode behind us and let Boris get back to what he
enjoys doing most...racing in the Trans-Am Series,² added Dale.
The Trans-Am 100, part of Infineon Raceway¹s NASCAR weekend, is scheduled to
start at 4:30 p.m. on Sunday, June 22, following the Winston Cup Series
race. The race will air, on tape-delayed basis, on the SPEED Channel, on
Friday, June 27 at 8 p.m.
