Tracy, Calif. – Superior Crankshaft and Pepper
Jack Kennels will sponsor Ryan Philpott of Tracy, Calif. in the Super Late Model portion
of this weekend’s Toyota All-Star Showdown at Toyota Speedway in Irwindale, Calif.

 

Philpott,
the 2007 Altamont Raceway Park Western Late Model champion, will be competing
under his family-owned Philpott Race Cars banner. The 26 year-old has reason to
be confident heading into the event, after a mind-blowing 2007 season record of
10 wins, 21 fast-times, and 21 top-tens in 26 starts. His runs included a
stretch of 11 poles in the first 13 races of the season.

 

Since
that darling season, Philpott has dabbled in the now titled NASCAR K&N Pro
Series West competition. He has also run a limited schedule in the Late Models
while attempting to find sponsorship to support additional efforts on the
track. 

 

“We are thrilled to sponsor Ryan Philpott in the upcoming Toyota
All-Star Showdown," said Cheryl Archer, CEO Superior Crankshaft. "Superior is all about
technology, quality, and speed. Our crankshaft technology constantly pushes the
boundaries and we believe those features are what motorsports and racing are
all about.�??

 

Philpott
and his team will arrive to the track on Thursday. Practices will take place at
10 a.m. and noon on Friday, followed by time
trials at 5:15 p.m. and the feature race at 7:35 p.m.

 

Last
year’s events drew over 60 entrants vying for 40 starting positions in the 100
lap feature. The feature events pays $10,000 to win and will be broadcasted
live on SPEED with Irwindale Speedway expected to be at sold out
capacity.
