SCITES
TO DRIVE NO. 06 CHAMPION CHEVROLET IN
2008
MOORESVILLE,
N.C. (March 18, 2008) ? After a
successful 2007 season, Davin Scites
Motorsports has announced the No. 06
Champion Chevrolet schedule for 2008,
which features a full slate of racing at
Motor Mile Speedway in Radford, Va.,
plus select late model stock car events
at other tracks throughout the
Southeast.
Scites,
a native of West Virginia, ended the
2007 season with five wins, 15 top fives
and 18 top-10 finishes. He also set a
new track record in qualifying for the
annual late model stock car race at
Martinsville in September.
His success behind
the wheel led Scites to an association
with the Dale Earnhardt Jr.-owned JR
Motorsports for the 2008 season.
Sponsored by Champion, a world leader in
the manufacturing of spark plugs, Scites
moved into JR Motorsports? 66,000-square
foot facility in Mooresville, N.C., at
the end of 2007.
"Davin is a
great race car driver and a great
friend,? Earnhardt Jr. said. ?He worked
out of a shop near my house last year
and I was impressed with the number of
wins he racked up during the season. It
seemed like every time I walked into the
shop there was a new trophy Davin had
won over the weekend.
?With all
his success, JR Motorsports is proud to
be associated with Davin Scites
Motorsports for the 2008 season. I'm
looking forward to seeing Davin put the
No. 06 Champion Chevy in Victory Lane."
Scites
first race of the season is scheduled
for April 5 at Motor Mile Speedway.
?I?m so
excited to get this season started,?
Scites said. ?We?ve been working hard on
the car to get it ready for the season.
We are honored to have Champion as our
sponsor and can?t wait to get on the
track and get to racing.?
