Privateer Racing - Drivers Released

It is unfortunate to announce that Privateer Racing is forced to release 3 drivers in order to meet the new CANAM Racing team driver cap. Nate McNeely, Chuck Chambliss and Tim Francis have been released. You guys are top notch drivers and I feel absolutely horrible for the nessasary move to meet league rules.

Race Report - ARCA Kansas

Privateer Racing had 7 entries in the ARCA Kansas race tonight. Steve Vaughan finished a strong 4th place. Wes Stought finished 7th, he was set to finish 3rd when he came up short on fuel and had to pit with a lap to go in the race. Ed Butler found trouble in the early laps of the race but stuck it out and finished 8th. Kelvin Howell finished 13th having to park it early due to handling issues and the 2 spin rule. Jake Francis finished 24 having to park early because of the 2 spin rule. Bob Cowden finished 25th having found trouble early. Tim Francis finished 27th after having a first lap incident with another driver that spun in front of him. A good turn out though and things will improve on track as we learn our way around the ARCA stock cars.
