PARKER, Arizona — Greg Pursley, who pilots the Gene Price Motorsports Ford in the NASCAR K&N Pro West Series is hoping to keep their team's momentum going into the upcoming Iowa Speedway East/West combination race this Saturday, May 21, 2011. Pursley is currently leading the points series and has won four of the past six series races, dating back to last season. Pursley who scored a pole at Iowa Speedway in 2009, is eager to compete not only against his own series challengers but the East Series competitors as well. "This is a big race and one that our team really wants to win. Our team has gelled and we have the right people in place to get the job done" said Pursley.
"Gene Price Motorsports is more than just a successful and winning race team - its also a business that thrives on helping out short track racers from all around the Southwest. "
In addition to the #26 of Pursley, Gene Price Motorsports has a second team with series new comer, Dylan Kwasniewski.
