Bud Kaeding set for Sand’s Chevrolet Copper on Dirt
By Gary Thomas
Campbell, CA – February 13, 2008…Campbell, Calif racer Bud Kaeding is locked and loaded to begin the 2008 season at this weekend’s Sand’s Chevrolet Copper on Dirt at the Manzanita Speedway. The Copper on Dirt is back for a second straight year following a very successful inaugural running of the event last season at Manzy, which saw 130 cars take to the scary fast ½ mile.
Kaeding is coming off a season that saw him win his second straight USAC Silver Crown Series title and he’ll begin his bid for a three peat at the Copper on Dirt, competing once again aboard the BK Motorsports No. 29. The 28 year-old finished last year’s Copper on Dirt in the fourth position and he’ll look to better that result this year in what will hopefully begin a very strong season for the third generation driver.
In addition to winning the Silver Crown title last year, Kaeding also picked up his third career Oval Nationals victory at the Perris Auto Speedway when he passed Casey Shuman on the very last lap of the main event. Throughout his career he has also experienced much success at the Manzanita Speedway, including a pair of wins in the prestigious Western World Championships. Last November he finished third at the Western World and also out-qualified 60 entrants for fast time during the Friday night portion of the event.
The Sand’s Chevrolet Copper on Dirt features the opening point races for the USAC Silver Crown Series and the USAC National and Western States Midgets. Also on the card during the weekend will be the USAC/CRA 410 wingless sprinters. Fans will be treated to a number of improvements at the track including a new redesigned catch fence, new concessions and new aluminum bleachers. For tickets and info call 602 276-7575
BK Motorsports would like to thank all of our marketing partners who are supporting the team this year and for anyone else who would like to come on board as a sponsor please contact Bud at [email protected]
