Herd Racing has a sponsor!

It's not for the Nationwide car, but Herd Racing's foray into the Craftsman Truck Series in 2009 has a sponsor, Deist Industries.

The announcement was made Friday afternoon in Louisville, Ky., during the Green Industry and Equipment Expo. On hand for the announcement were team owner Dana Tomes and driver Brett Rowe.

Deist is a Pennsylvania-based manufacturer of the Switch-N-Go detachable truck body system, AmeriDeck hydraulic loading system for pickup trucks, and Buck's roll-off containers.

The Herd team will field a #75 Ford F-150 truck, in addition to the #75 Dodge Charger in NASCAR during 2009, and is still looking for sponsorship for the car, Dana said.

The fully decked-out truck will be on display Sunday afternoon at New Life Church's Fall Festival, beginning at 2 p.m. Driver Brett Rowe will also be at the event for photos and autographs. The Marshall University car will also be on display at the event.

I know the Deist guys over in PA. They're a proud USA manufacturer, and their products really save businesses time and money!

Glad they're supporting the Herd!

Good for Brett.
On another subject, the rumors are flying that Ona Speedway will not race Late model cars next year, Also it has been proposed that the Modifieds go to a Little "305" engine. If this done the Hobby cars , of which there are only 3 competitive ones, will become the fastest Class. Shame, the premier class at a local track is going to be Hobby cars. Could you report on this

Guess it's too much to ask for the information about Ona's Lineup of classes next year, or I guess you don't care.
