Stremme Racing Trimpsa Dodge in Nashville

Lebanon, TN (April 11, 2004) – David Stremme qualified in the fourteenth 
position for Saturday’s Pepsi 300 at Nashville Superspeedway. Stremme’s X32 
TRIMSPA Dodge had posted the fourth fastest time in the final practice on Friday 
and Team TRIMSPA appeared poised for a top finish.
            From the drop of the green Stremme’s Dodge was one of the fastest 
cars in the field. Stremme had worked his way up eight positions into the 
sixth spot by lap 42 when he radioed to his crew that he had a tire going down. 
The resulting unscheduled stop dropped Stremme to the 29th position, two laps 
down to the leaders. Stremme began to climb back through the field as other 
competitors entered the pits with flats. Team TRIMSPA’s tire woes were not over 
however, as Stremme spun due to a flat tire on lap 83. 
Stremme’s crew jumped into action to repair minor front-end damage under the 
resulting caution. However it was evident when leaving the pits that the X32 
TRIMSPA Dodge had lost first gear in the spin, causing the car to stall. Back 
on track Stremme restarted in the 31st position and proceeded to pass every car 
on his lap, moving the X32 TRIMSPA Dodge up into the 23rd position. By lap 
190 he was the fastest car on the track. However, lady luck was finished with 
Stremme as his car started to overheat due to bent duct work in the front end. 
After several stops to cool the X32 TRIMSPA Dodge, the engine finally expired 
at lap 214. 
            “What a day for the TRIMSPA Dodge,” explained Stremme. “We had 
two flat tires, a broken tranny, and a blown engine. But there is no reason to 
hang our heads. The car was incredibly fast. We just had the worst luck I have 
ever experienced. Obviously the entire field fought tire issues today.”
            Stremme finished the day in the 32nd position dropping him two 
positions to 14th in the Busch Series points. Stremme and the X32 TRIMSPA Dodge 
will look to bounce back when they visit Talladega Motor Speedway for the Aaron
’s 312 in two weeks. The race will be televised live, April 24, at 2:00 p.m. 
eastern time on FOX, broadcast nationally on radio stations affiliated with 
Motor Racing Network and XM Satellite Radio Channel 144.
