(New Lenox, IL,)—May 27, 2008—Probst Motorsports is pleased to announce Team Lucas as the primary partner for the #99 Pro 2wd driven by Kevin Probst, and the # 5 Pro Lite driven by Jon Probst. Team Lucas is a marketing partnership including Lucas Oil Products and the following partners; Jim Beam, Dixie Choppers, E3 Spark Plugs, R&L Carriers, K&N Filters, General Tire, and Super Clean. The Probst team will alternate different sponsors throughout the 2008 WSORR season starting in Wheatland Mo., at the Lucas Oil Speedway sponsored by E3 Spark Plugs. “We are very excited to have Lucas Oil and Team Lucas involved with our team this season”, said Kevin Probst, “The Team Lucas program has given our team the ability to showcase the Team Lucas partners at individual events throughout the 2008 Season”. The start of the 2008 World Series of Off Road Racing tour begins this weekend at the Lucas Oil Speedway. E3 Spark Plugs will be carried on the team’s race trucks in addition to several of the Team Lucas partners and will be rotated throughout the season as needed. The Probst Team will still carry the Simply Wow degreaser as an associate partner and Toyo Tires as our tire partner. This will be our 2nd year with Simply Wow and the new products keep coming. This year will feature a permanent tire shine called Impossible Shine, that the team will test at the races on the race trucks as well as the complete lineup of all natural cleaning and detailing products from Source Direct, the manufacturer of the Simply Wow family. Toyo Tires will be back for the 4th season with the Probst Motorsports Team. The Team will race the Toyo Open Country MT tires throughout the 2008 WSORR season. “We are once again delighted to continue our relationship with Toyo Tires,” said Kevin Probst “The tires have proven to be a genuine performance advantage for our team, and the toughness of the Open Country line is second to none”. Another addition to the team in 2008 is HTP America, with a full line of Mig and Tig Welding equipment and accessories as well as Plasma cutting equipment. “We have been using HTP Welders for over 20 years” said Kevin Probst “the addition of HTP to our team with the new Invertig 201 was very cool”. The team used the new pulse style Tig welder to fabricate the new U-Weld Pro 2 truck to be driven by Kevin. Come by the pits at the races to check out the versatility of this lightweight unit. More details concerning the Team Lucas program and our team will follow as needed. Let’s go Racing! |
