FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE (Boogertown, North Carolina)
As one of the few single-car teams in NASCAR Cup Series competition, 52 Pickup Racing has faced a difficult task competing with multi-car titans like Front Row Motorsports and Rick Ware Racing. Thus, in order to better compete against bigger teams, 52 Pickup Racing has announced a strategic partnership with fellow independent team Angela’s Motorsports.
“This is really just what we need to give our team a shot in the arm”, said Ed Murray, one of the fifty-two co-owners of 52 Pickup Racing. “We can only do so much with two cars, one engine, and a handful of lug nuts. With this new partnership we hope to really see how we stack up against the rest of the field.”
Angela’s Motorsports has competed primarily in the Xfinity Series, but is expected to bring economies of scale and fair comparisons to the 52 Pickup Racing team.
“I’m not super-familiar with what Angela’s Motorsports has done lately, but I heard they have Mike McLaughlin as a driver—he’s a veteran with lots of wisdom to share”, said T.B. Dee, driver of the Monday Cigarettes race car for 52 Pickup Racing. “And its pretty cool to see a race team owned by a woman—I’m sure she’s got quite a story to tell.”
“I even hear they have a deal in place with Yates”, Murray added. “And those guys don’t just do business with any old team!”
QUOTES: “As soon as I heard about a deal with this team, I ran.” —T.B. Dee, driver of the 52 Pickup Racing Monday Cigarettes race car.
“We’re on the next flight out to close this deal. All this excitement makes me quite the Wired Flyer.” —Ed Murray, co-owner of 52 Pickup Racing.
