NASCIMENTO MOTORSPORTS ADDS ANOTHER CAR TO THE STABLE

Manteca, CA --- Nascimento Motorsports has announced plans to field 2 cars to compete in the entire 2007 Westcar Late Model series and other select Nascar races on off weekends. Eric Nascimento a former SWT crew member will compete for the rookie of the year honors while Greg Potts former SWT driver will compete for the championship. The crew has spent endless hours building 2 completely brand new Victory Circle Late Models powered with Chevrolet crate motors.

Eric will be competing in the #21 Chevrolet and Greg in the #2 Chevrolet.

With no prior race history on his resume, Eric spent the last month running test sessions at nearby All American Speedway in Roseville, CA, and Madera Speedway in Madera, Ca. Practice has been very valuable to get Eric up to speed.

“I am just looking to finish some races and hope to bring the car home in one piece” Eric said. “The goal is to have both cars run competitively and for Greg to win some races. If we can do that and have some fun it will make for a good season.”

For any chance to gain the Rookie of the Year honors, Eric just needs to be consistant and get as much seat time as possible. When Westcar is not scheduled to race, you can find Nascimento Motorsports at Madera, Altamont, or Roseville getting the rookie as much seat time as possible.

“I feel very confident that we have 2 really good cars that will allow us to be very competitive,” crew chief Mike Nascimento said. “I know Eric is a rookie but with Greg’s experience and Eric’s set up knowledge we should be able to have some fun and win some races.”

“I am looking forward to having the opportunity with Nascimento Motorsports of running an entire season in one division and to contend for a title” Greg said. “These guys work their tail off and always put a good car under me now is my time to step it up and win some races.”

Both teams will be arriving in Ukiah on Friday for practice the night before the race.

Nascimento Motorsports will also be running limited schedules with Greg piloting the #31 Chevrolet Monte Carlo in the SRL and Victor Machado in a Grand American Modified.
