Center Line, Mich. - Race fans may do a double take when the Tony Stewart Racing Enterprises duo of Josh Wise and Levi Jones hits the track at the Phoenix International Raceway this weekend for the Copper World Classic. Wise and Jones will carry a new "midnight camo" paint scheme on their Mopar machines for the Copper World Classic event and the USAC/CRA Sprint event at Manzanita Speedway in Arizona.
"This new look is really going to spice things up," Jones said. "You can really see the cars; they stand out well on the track. I think that the fans will be better able to recognize our cars on the track, especially at night, because of the reflective tape on the logos. The paint is really going to help identify our team cars."
The "midnight camo" scheme was designed by Competition Graphics of Farmington Hills, Mich. Competition Graphics is one of America's premier motorsports graphic suppliers. The Tony Stewart Racing Enterprises race team will carry the paint scheme for all three USAC divisions in 2006.
After three years of the traditional blue, black and silver Mopar scheme, Wise looks forward to the debut of the new look.
"The new scheme is really cool. We really like it," Wise said. "It's very different from anything that's been run before. Mopar is always doing different things and keeping us in front of the public eye. I think that the new paint scheme will help keep us in everyone's minds this year."
Wise, Jones and the Tony Stewart Racing Enterprises team will participate in the USAC National Midget Car Series portion of the USAC Copper World Classic at Phoenix International Raceway. Qualifying is set to begin at 3:05 p.m. PST on Saturday, January 21. The team will then move to Manzanita Speedway later that day to compete in the USAC/CRA California Sprints event. Qualifying is scheduled to begin at 6:30 p.m. PST.
