Can anyone here help me with some info on this wing panel I recently purchased? I do not recognize it from Kahne/Saldana driven cars I searched on Google. Looking for a picture of the car in action or year range, I am thinking early 2000s. Any help would be appreciated. I reached out to Kasy Kahne Racing but have not heard back from them. Panel is signed by Kasey Kahne.  ">http://
Thank you,
Aaron

Wish it had a series decal on it, might help date it better. I'm going to say with somewhat confidence that this probably closer to mid 00s - maybe 04-05?
I'm going to think it was early as given there's no primary sponsor. Saldana drove the 9 in 2006 but it was a white/red/black scheme with no primary sponsor. Curb Records was on the car in a similar spot to the wing you have.
I feel like Jeff Shepard drove a few early races for Kasey and maybe even Tyler Walker as well? I just looked quite extensively but couldn't find anything to confirm.
Best of luck. Hope this helps a bit.

I believe KKR's first year was 2005. I know Jesse Hocket drove his Silver Crown car some that year and Jeff Shepard ran a car at the 05' Kings Royal. I just don't remember the black wing.

I'll look into that, starting to wonder if this is from a car he ran at Skagit Speedway some time ago that never ran with Outlaws or AllStars...

I found a picture of the wing. http://www.mikecurb.com/auto/other.cfm
Scroll way down and you
'll see this car listed as Joey Saldana 2006; winner of the 2006 big one, Knoxville. After looking closer the decals are a little different.
Keep It Real

i think that is Jesse Hocket. He was their early driver. It;s a shame, as he was extremely talented, but he was kind of the guinee pig for that program and never got to see it through to where they were very successful. They were awful early on when he drove that car and struggled mightily
