FOZ Race Cars Congratulates Customers On Strong Start To 2008


Hud Horton scores his third victory of the season in his new FOZ Race Car

Hamilton, OH—June 4th, 2008—FOZ Race Cars customers have enjoyed a strong start to the 2008 season with both wins and top three finishes during the month of May. 

FOZ Race Cars are off to a strong start in the Midwest.  Topping the wins list in the 2008 season is Jamie ‘Hud’ Horton.  Despite splitting his time between full-size sprints and midgets, Horton has scored 3 victories in the young 2008 season.  The first win came in Florida during the Winter Nationals where he scored a victory at Hendry County Speedway.  Horton scored another victory as racing returned North where he scored a victory in the opening round of the Midwest Mini Sprints Winged Warrior Tour at Moler Raceway Park.  Horton’s most recent victory came during the tour’s second stop at Moler Raceway Park.  2007 A.M.S.A. champion, Jason Soudrette scored back-to-back second place finishes at Osgood, Indiana and Twin Cities Raceway Park to earn the championship in the Grassroots Racing Revival.  Scott Fasse has also registered two top three finishes with a pair of third place finishes at Twin Cities Raceway Park during the month of May. 

FOZ Race Cars has also been enjoying success on the West Coast at the hands of youngster D.J. Snyder.  Despite running his 600cc powered car against either side-winders or 1000cc mini sprints, Snyder has posted not only top five finishes, but victories.  Snyder recently registered a second place finish in competition with the Western Slopes 1200s.  Snyder commented on his website after his first outing in the FOZ Car, “I feel really good compared to last year.  Driving this FOZ Race Car is like going from a '52 pickup to a '07 Corvette.  From entry to mid-corner to exit, the handling of this chassis is excellent.  Thanks, Papa!!"

Rob Wilkerson has also put his FOZ Race Cars 1000cc mini sprint in the top 3 in competition with the Colorado 1200cc Outlaws.  Wilkerson’s top three finish came at El Paso County Speedway.  The Wilkerson family will soon be a FOZ Race Cars family as they recently took delivery of another FOZ Race Cars’ mini sprint chassis for his younger brother.


Justin Phillips earned his second victory in a FOZ during the month May.

FOZ Race Cars have also been well represented on the East Coast where Justin Phillips is campaigning another FOZ.  On May 17th at Whip City Speedway Phillips earned his second victory in a FOZ Race Car in 1200cc mini sprint action.

This promises to be a break-out year for the FOZ Race Car’s mini sprint as several new competitors have taken to the track including Greg Nicholas, Kevin Roberts Sr., Beau Stewart, Stormy Steinhauer, Shane Hayslett, Jamie Paul, Pat Potter and many others.  Best of luck to all the FOZ Race Cars’ pilots during the 2008 season.  For more information on FOZ Race Cars, call 513.874.2034 or visit us on the web at www.fozracecars.com.
