Unite With MB Motorsports For Daytona
CHARLOTTE, North Carolina (Tuesday, February 6, 2007) - - _GunBroker.com_
(http://www.gunbroker.com/) officials announced today that Jason White and
_GunBroker.com_ (http://www.gunbroker.com/) will switch to the NASCAR Craftsman
Truck Series next week attempting to make the Chevy Silverado HD 250 in a
truck fielded by MB Motorsports.
_GunBroker.com_ (http://www.gunbroker.com/) is the world’s largest online
auction of firearms and accessories. Founded in 1999, GunBroker.com promotes
responsible gun ownership.
Third-party sellers list items on the site, and every buyer or seller must
be legally allowed to own firearms. Ownership policies and regulations are
followed using licensed firearms dealers as transfer agents. The site is an
informative, detailed, secure and safe way to buy and sell firearms and hunting
and shooting accessories.
GunBroker.com is similar in operation to the well-known auction site, eBayâ„¢,
although not affiliated in any way.
MB Motorsports has fielded a NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series entry for a
number of years with some very popular drivers at the helm. NASCAR Nextel Cup
Series drivers Carl Edwards and Jamie McMurray, American Speed Association
veteran Chris Wimmer, ARCA superstar Justin Allgaier, and the late Kenny Irwin, Jr
all had an opportunity to pilot the No. 63 MB Motorsports Ford F-150. Now, it’
s White turn.
“I’m looking forward to Daytona and rejoining the NASCAR Craftsman Truck
Series,�?? said Jason White, a native of Virginia. “I’m thankful for the
opportunity that Mike Mittler and his MB Motorsports have given myself and
_GunBroker.com_ (http://www.gunbroker.com/) . We’re looking for a good run at Daytona.
�??
“Today is a great day for _GunBroker.com_ (http://www.gunbroker.com/) ,�??
Dwayne Gaulding, President of Motorsports Marketing for _GunBroker.com_
(http://www.gunbroker.com/) said. “We’re continuing to explore our avenues in the
NASCAR market. We’re excited about this opportunity with our driver Jason
White and our new affiliation with MB Motorsports. We’re hoping for a positive
run next week.�??
It will be nearly four years since White, who has 39 starts in the NASCAR
Busch Series will attempt to make a NCTS event. He has not started an event
since Kansas Speedway in 2003 in a truck owned by Troxell Motorsports.
“It’s a good feeling getting back in a truck,�?? White explained. “I know it’
s been a long time since I’ve actually raced an event, but I’ve kept up
with the technology and changes within the series, I wish I could get in that
seat tomorrow.�??
Following Daytona, the group plans to compete together at Atlanta Motor
Speedway (AMS) in the American Commercial Lines 200, the third event on the NCTS
schedule. He will also attempt to make his debut at the extremely fast
1.5-mile oval.
Heading into DIS (Daytona International Speedway), White has 11 NASCAR
Craftsman Truck Series (NCTS) starts to his resume with a career best finish of
13th at Martinsville Speedway. He holds a career best qualifying effort of
17th at Dover International Speedway.
The Chevy Silverado HD 250 (100 laps-250 miles) is the first of 25 events on
the 2007 NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series schedule. First round of practice
begins Wednesday February 14 from 4:30pm to 5:30pm EST. Practice continues on
Thursday, February 15 with an hour and a half (11:45am-1:15pm EST) session
