Cullman, AL --- Kelly Hanvey Racing is proud to announce a new partnership
for the 2004 season with Travis Kress of Cullman, AL. The Kress Racing team
enjoyed great success in their rookie season with its #73 car winning the
2003 track championship at River Valley Speedway in Arkadelphia, AL. When
the team's current driver decided to pursue go-cart racing, Brian approached
Kelly about filling the vacant seat. Hanvey, while not running a series in
2003, had a solid year with 1 win, 9 top 5's and 13 top 10's in 23 starts
this season.
This new partnership comes with an added twist--Kelly and Brian have agreed
to let Travis (Brian's 15 year old son) act as the car owner. "We hope to
tutor Travis and give him a full idea of what running a Late Model program
is all about," states Kelly. Brian Kress says, "we hope to have Travis in
the car for 3 or 4 practice sessions while not interfering with Kelly's race
schedule in our car."
The team is preparing for its debut at the Ice Bowl at Talladega Short Track
in January, with current plans to run the car with a new number, 37, in most
large purse open motor races throughout the southeast. Fans can still look
forward to seeing "BIZKIT" in his familiar K0 car running the Big 10 Steel
Head Series during it's sophomore season at North Alabama Motor Speedway and
Winchester Speedway in Tennessee. The team is considering running both cars
at some of the combination events during the year as well.
Both cars will sport "The Performance Connection" engines under the hood and
race on American Race Tires. Kelly Hanvey Racing will maintain it's Fast
Chassis (by Bizkit), The Performance Connection, American Race Tire, Real
Racing Wheels, CTC Photos sponsored 'Bizkit' #K0 car at his own shop in
Cullman.
The two teams are very proud of their new affiliation and are looking
forward to a very successful 2004. Please visit ww.kellyhanveyracing.com
