FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE (Boogertown, North Carolina)
Any new NASCAR Cup team is going to go through normal growing pains, and 52 Pickup Racing is no exception. However, the team in general—and driver T.B. Dee in particular—has benefitted greatly from a number of learning experiences.
“This was my first time at the race shop in months, so I was glad to see the progress (T.B.) Dee has made so far”, said majority owner Gunther Hoffberger, one of the fifty-two co-owners of 52 Pickup Racing and founder of Phrenology Associates. “For instance, he seems to have picked up some conversational French, which is nice.”
“I’ve been watching a lot of YouTube instructional videos lately to help me relax”, Dee said, “mostly about how to take care of your cell phone’s battery. Did you know that regularly ‘cycling’ the battery down to zero could help extend its life by months, maybe years?”
“Yep, he’s a young driver, but he’s still learning”, Hoffberger said. “Today he told me a pretty interesting story about the short-lived State of Franklin. We’re glad we have such a well-rounded driver—and not ‘well-rounded’ like Tony Stewart—and hope that he continues to broaden his horizons.
“Of course, learning how to drive the car faster might be a useful thing to learn too”, Hoffberger said, before adding “Just sayin’”.
QUOTES: “That Gunther, always joking around when he’s here. Just wait till I tell him how Rodney Dangerfield got his stage name!” —T.B. Dee, driver of the 52 Pickup Racing Monday Cigarettes race car.
“Sure, T.B.—why don’t you call me, I’ll hang up and listen.” —Gunther Hoffberger, majority co-owner of 52 Pickup Racing.
ABOUT 52 PICKUP RACING: 52 Pickup Racing is NASCAR Cup’s newest race team. Based out of Boogertown North Carolina, the team employs up-and-coming driver T.B. Dee who is telling anyone that will listen how both Myanmar and Burma are acceptable names for the Southeastern Asian nation.
