Daryn Pittman Joins Pete's Motorsports No. 25
January
21, 2009
By
Bob Jones
A talented shoe doesn't sit idle for long and Daryn Pittman
is pleased to announce he is joining Pete Postupack and the Pete's Motorsports
team for Florida Speedweek. "I am really
pleased to hook up with Pete's Motorsports for Florida. Pete always has good equipment and with
Kevin Fry as the mechanic, I think we will make a pretty strong team," said
Pittman. "I was in a position where I
needed to find something and they were looking too. We talked for a while about what each of us were looking for and
here we are."
Brian Boughter, team manager for Pete's Motorsports added,
"It just made sense for us. We were
looking to put a deal together for Florida and Daryn is the best driver
available on the market. The plan is to
start in Florida and show what we are capable of. Hopefully we can secure some additional funds after that to help
us run the schedule we want for the rest of the year," said Boughter.
"As of now we are leaving the plans wide open. Ideally we'd like to run 100 shows focusing
in Central PA, but running some World of Outlaws shows, the All Stars and some
of the big shows like the Knoxville Nationals and the Kings Royal. It all depends on what funding we can secure. Based on how Florida goes, we may chase the
All Star points or we may concentrate on the Williams Grove points title. We are leaving our options open and we are
very excited to have Daryn coming aboard our team," he said.
The team will be racing nine nights in 11 days starting with
three nights at Ocala Speedway on January 29-31 as part of the O'Reilly's All
Star Winter Nationals, then six straight nights at Volusia Speedway Park for
the second half of the Winter Nationals February 3-5 followed with three nights
of World of Outlaws action February 6-8.
"We will find out quickly what we are made of," said
Pittman. "Everybody will be in Florida
and everybody will have fresh equipment.
I'm sure that much racing with a new team right out of the box can be a
little overwhelming, but if we get on a roll we could have a lot of
success. I'm excited to get to know
these guys better and looking forward to seeing how we can do. More than anything, I'm grateful for the
opportunity to race with these guys and build on something for us to race
together for the rest of the year," said Pittman.
Pete’s Motorsports will be utilizing Rider
Racing Engines and Maxim Chassis.Sponsors on the Pete’s Motorsports No. 25 include Pete’s Bridge Street
Motors, Emory Transmission, Rock-it Pizza & Subs, Orkin Pest Control,
Harrisburg Auto Auction, Jakes Carts, H&H Lighting and ABC Klean Cars.With help from Hank’s Performance Products,
Simpson, Wings Unlimited, Weld Wheels, DMI, Pro Shocks, Fuel Safe and Crane
Cams.Stay tuned to www.darynpittman.com for more news and

Outlaw driver in a Posse car, can't ask for more. Just add another big name onto the list of people I can watch for $13 a night and another reason to skip Outlaw shows at $35. Sprint car racing may be hurting around the country, but with this lineup we have nothing to complain about in PA: Pat Cannon, Cody Darrah, Lance Dewease, Mike Erdley, Cris Eash, Doug Esh, Justin Henderson, Greg Hodnett, Keith Kauffman, Alan Krimes, Brian Leppo, Sean Michael, Brian Montieth, Kevin Nouse, Fred Rahmer, Todd Shaffer, Mark Smith, Stevie Smith, Jim Siegel, Niki Young...and occasional appearances from Lucas Wolfe. Can't wait to break the ice in the Pigeon Hills.

How can you think that pennsylvania is not a hotbed? They are only a handful of hours from ohio.

Haven't even bolted the seat in yet, and he's Posse? I'm sure he didn't get the same love winning a Summer Nats....
Congrats to Pete and Daryn. Hope you have a good season.

any driver exiting the tour who wanted to showcase his skills - what would be the best forum:
A) run the posse schedule
B) midwest 360 cherry pick
C) driving a school bus
Lincoln 1845 ft/.35 mile T1=118MPH
Eldora 2287 ft/.43mile T3=135MPH
Port 2716 ft/.51 mile T3=TBD
Grove 2792 ft/.53 mile T3=135MPH
Selinsgrove 2847 ft/.54 mile T1=136MPH

Don't get to excited people....read the article....this is just for Florida and then they will decide what to do after that...depending on results. Good luck to Daryn and the #25 team.

He got plenty of love when he blew by Schatz on night one of the Summer Nats in 2008.
