Probst Motorsports is proud to announce the addition of NISSAN as an
associate sponsor to their PRO-Light truck program. The team is
currently construction a brand new NISSAN FRONTIER race truck based
on the UWELD chassis kit. Initially the driving chores will be split
between teammates, Jon Probst and George Schultz. Once the truck is
fully developed, the team will begin the fabrication process to
build a second NISSAN FRONTIER for the 2008 WSORR race season.
“When the decision was made to expand our team into the PRO-Light
division, building a NISSAN FRONTIER was our first choice,”
commented team leader Kevin Probst. “The horsepower and torque that
can be developed with the NISSAN powerplant is incredible. Then
having NISSAN involved with our effort, especially on the technical
side, it will be a win-win situation for both parties.”
The engine building duties will be handled in house by Jeff Probst.
Jeff Probst Design engines have powered several Pro-2WD, Pro-4WD,
Pro-Light and Super Buggy competitors to victory lane.
