Stremme and the TRIMSPA X32 Dodge Qualify Well, Finish Up
Front at Pikes Peak
Fountain, CO (August 1, 2004) – Team TRIMSPA driver David Stremme qualified
third for Saturday’s Gould’s Pump’s 250 at Pike’s Peak International
Raceway. From the drop of the green Stremme fought a slight loose condition in the
center of the turns, falling to fifth by lap 29. However Stremme was able to
maintain a top five position, restarting fifth after his first pit stop of
the day, under caution on lap 40.
“I had another strong car this weekend,” said Stremme, driver of the
TRIMSPA X32 Dodge. “The TRIMSPA team gave me excellent stops all day and we got a
solid finish. After the races we have had the last few weeks, we will take it.”
Stremme restarted in ninth position on lap 90 after several cars opted for a
different pit strategy by not coming in or changing two tires instead of
four. During the closing stages Stremme was in second position on lap 118,
stretching his fuel mileage to the end of the race. With older tires than the rest
of the field, Stremme held on to finish seventh at the end of the day. The
finish was Stremme’s ninth top 10 of the season, helping him maintain the 18th
position in the Busch Series points standings.
“We lost some positions on that last restart, we were really a fifth-place
car,” said Stremme. “I had to let off to keep from being wrecked and it cost
us a couple of spots. All-in-all it was still a good day for the TRIMSPA
Dodge.”
Stremme and Team TRIMSPA will compete in the Kroger 200 at Indianapolis
Raceway Park, just down the road from the famous Indianapolis Motor Speedway, on
Saturday, August 8th. The event will be televised live at 8 p.m. eastern time
on TNT and will broadcast nationally at that same time on radio stations
affiliated with Motor Racing Network (MRN) and XM Satellite Radio Channel 144.
