Windy City Win… RAB Racing with Brack Maggard and Kenny Wallace will head to Chicagoland Speedway to compete in the Dollar General 300 this Saturday. This is the second stop for NASCAR’s Nationwide Series in Illinois this season which serves as home to many of the farm families and agribusinesses that make up Family Famers, the sponsor of the No. 09 Toyota Camry. In the STP 300 earlier this season at Chicagoland, Wallace brought home a respectable seventh-place finish. On the heels of his fifth-place finish last weekend at Richmond, Wallace and RAB Racing are hoping to ride the momentum all the way to Victory Lane Saturday.
Keeping Tabs… As we continue on the downhill slope of the 2011 NNS schedule, Kenny Wallace has become a fixture in the driver point standings top-10. He has posted an impressive 1 Top-5, 11 Top-10’s and 22 Top-20’s and, in only 4 more races, will hold the title of most NNS starts. Because Wallace was one of the top four highest-finishing Nationwide Series drivers Friday night, he has also qualified for the Nationwide Insurance Dash 4 Cash at Charlotte Motor Speedway. Wallace holds steady at seventh for the 18th consecutive week and RAB Racing continues to occupy 13th position in the NNS owner standings.
Chicagoland Details…
· Although Wallace is one of the most experienced drivers in the Nationwide Series, he has only 12 combined starts in NASCAR’s top-two divisions at Chicagoland.
· In ten NNS races at Chicagoland, Wallace’s best finish and only Top-10 came with RAB Racing earlier this season.
· RAB Racing will make its fourth appearance at the 1.5-mile “Windy City” track.
Welcome Back… This weekend at Chicagoland Speedway, Family Farmers returns as primary sponsor on the No. 09 Toyota Camry. Family Farmers is a multi-state coalition of farmers and agribusiness headquartered in Bloomington, Illinois. Participants in the Family Farmer coalition to date include the Illinois Corn Marketing Board (ICMB), the Illinois Soybean Association (ISA) and the Missouri Corn Merchandising Council (MCMC). To learn more about Family Farmers, please visit www.ilcorn.org.
The “fans” have spoken… Wallace will drive the No. 09 Toyota Camry supported by fans from around the world in October’s Nationwide Series event at Charlotte Motor Speedway. Though the deadline has passed to sponsor Kenny’s car, there is still more! Anyone who has placed their name on the Fan Car can order a Fan Car T-shirt. RAB Racing will be holding an open house on October 12th for fans to come see the wrapped car with their names on it! In addition to fan support, the University of Northwestern Ohio will be featured on the hood for the memorable event. For more information, please visit www.kennywallace.com.
