Chub Frank Visits Lester Buildings Plant In Illinois To Show Appreciation For Company's Sponsorship Support
CHARLESTON, IL - May 3, 2008 - Chub Frank visited a Lester Buildings plant in Charleston, Ill., on Friday afternoon to show appreciation for the company's support of his racing efforts.
The 46-year-old star from Bear Lake, Pa., stopped at the Lester Buildings Service Center en route to weekend World of Outlaws Late Model Series events in Missouri at Lebanon I-44 Speedway (Saturday) and Monett Speedway (Sunday).
"It was a great opportunity to thank everyone at Lester Buildings for all they do to make our sponsorship program possible," said Frank, who has carried the Lester Buildings logo on his No. 1* dirt Late Models for four seasons. "If it wasn't for Lester's backing, we wouldn't be able to do all the racing that we do."
Frank's afternoon in the 'Land of Lincoln' included lunch with the company's employees and a tour of the plant where the tresses for his own Lester Buildings race shop were produced. He displayed his familiar Rocket car outside the plant and mingled with Lester Buildings workers and local fans that stopped by.
"We had a great time at the plant," said Frank, who is celebrating 30 years behind the wheel of a race car in 2008. "Everyone treated us so well all day and made us feel right at home.
"Hopefully our visit will bring us some good luck that will help get us a win this weekend in Missouri."
