Newman’s car will pay tribute to U.S. Army Reserve in Texas
FORT WORTH, Texas – Ryan Newman’s No. 39 U.S. Army Chevrolet will pay tribute to the men and women of the Army Reserve in the Samsung Mobile 500 NASCAR Sprint Cup race Saturday, at Texas Motor Speedway. The paint scheme on the hood and rear-quarter panel of Newman’s car will showcase Army Reserve. Since the U.S. Army Reserves was founded in 1908, Reserve Soldiers have received the same training as active-duty Soldiers and have had the opportunity to serve near home until they are needed to deploy. Reserve Soldiers combine civilian experience with military training to provide specialized skills for military missions around the world. “This is another excellent opportunity for our high-profile U.S. Army NASCAR team to educate young Americans about the many career options available in the U.S. Army,” said Col.

Tony Stewart Messin’ with Texas
KANNAPOLIS, N.C.– Despite the warning carried on bumper stickers slapped on the backs of countless pickup trucks and cars throughout the state of Texas, Tony Stewart enjoys messin’ with Texas.

Stewart has been messing around in Texas for nearly two decades, first harassing drivers in the IZOD IndyCar Series and now drivers in the elite NASCAR Sprint Cup Series. It all began in November 1995 when Stewart was tabbed to pilot A.J. Foyt’s Indy car for a commercial shoot at Texas World Speedway in College Station. And while those laps were a … Read entire article »

Former Texas Winner Newman Back to Enjoying Intermediate Tracks
FORT WORTH, Texas – Coming to a 1.5-mile track wasn’t always a pleasant thought for Ryan Newman. But based on his recent success at the intermediate tracks, Newman along with the entire No. 39 U.S. Army team are feeling confident about Saturday night’s Samsung Mobile 500 Sprint Cup race at Texas Motor Speedway. The reason for the change of attitude about the intermediate tracks is the fifth-place finishes Newman has claimed this season at Las Vegas (1.5-mile) and Fontana, Calif. (2-mile). “We’re off to a strong start and if we’re going to continue to have success we need to do well at the intermediate tracks like Texas,” explained Newman. “In the past, the mile-and-a-half and two-mile tracks gave us problems, but so far this season we have had good results at those … Read entire article »
