Stremme Dodge Ready for First Start at Kansas Speedway


Stremme, TRIMSPA X32  Dodge Ready for First Start at Kansas Speedway 
Kansas City, KS  (October 6, 2004) – When David Stremme takes the green flag 
for the Mr.  Goodcents 300 at Kansas Speedway this Saturday, it will be his 
first race ever  at the 1.5-mile tri-oval. Driving at a NASCAR racetrack for the 
first time is  nothing new to Stremme. He has visited 10 new tracks while 
driving the TRIMSPA  X32 Dodge in 2004, despite having 18 starts in 2003 which 
was enough to claim  Rookie of the Year honors. Kansas Speedway is currently the 
last track on the  Busch circuit where Stremme has no experience. Stremme has 
already posted three  top10’s, including one top five, at tracks where he has 
made his first start  this season. 
“I can say that I have  raced them all after this weekend,” said Stremme, 
driver of the TRIMSPA X32  Dodge. “Next year, when we run at Watkins Glen and 
Mexico, I will  not have raced at those places either, but I will in the same 
boat as the other  drivers. I am just focused on getting a solid finish this 
weekend for the  TRIMSPA Team. We ran okay at Dover last week but normally we are 
better than  that. Having an off weekend gives you extra time to think about 
it. I am glad we  will be racing every week from here on out.” 
Competing at every  Busch track is just one milestone in Stremme’s transition 
into a veteran of the  series. Just last weekend Stremme passed the million 
dollar mark in Busch career  earnings. Part of that success helped Stremme to 
become a team owner in the ASA  Late Model Series for his younger brother Bobby 
Stremme, who just this past  weekend claimed the championship and rookie of 
the year honors in the same  season. 
“I could not be more  proud of my brother and his performance in the ASA Late 
Model Series,” said  Stremme. “I have had a lot of fun as a team owner 
watching my brother develop as  a smart, consistent, winning driver. My mother and 
father are the same way,  tough competitors and track champions. Racing is 
just a part of our  family.” 
Stremme and Team  TRIMSPA will travel to Kansas Speedway this Thursday in 
preparation for  competing in the Mr. Goodcents 300 Saturday, October 9th. The 
event will be  televised live at 2 p.m. eastern time on TNT and will broadcast 
nationally at  that same time on radio stations affiliated with MRN and XM 
Satellite Radio  Channel 144.
