NOTES:
- This Week’s Racecar for Kansas Speedway is Chassis 28-109. This chassis ran last year at some Sprint (then NEXTEL) Cup races with Dave Blaney behind the wheel.
- Newcomer… Annett has never raced on the Kansas Speedway track, but the rookie has tested on the 1.5-mile track and is more than ready to get things underway this weekend.
- Lube it Up… Northland Motor Oils-Lubricants will once again be the primary sponsor this weekend on Annett’s No. 28 Toyota Camry. Northland is based out of Waterloo, Iowa and has been a supporter of Annett for the last three years.
- Making History… Annett was the first driver in the 55-year ARCA RE/MAX Series history to take the Toyota nameplate to victory lane, which he did at Talladega in 2007. He qualified second and led all but 19 laps en route to that victory. Annett also won again at the 2008 ARCA 200 in Daytona earlier this year.
- Proving His Worth… Though Annett’s career ARCA Series stats boast only six starts, they are impressive: two victories, one pole, three top-five finishes and five top-10 finishes.
- The Puck Stops Here… At the age of 16, Annett signed a contract to play professional hockey for Team Illinois, a tier one AAA team. In 2004, Annett was voted the most improved player in the U.S. Hockey League.
- Autographs Anyone… Annett will be signing autographs at the Legends Mall on Thursday, April 24th starting at 5:30pm.
- Listen and Watch … The Kansas Lottery $150 is scheduled to start at 4 p.m. CST on Friday, April 25th. It will broadcast live on the Speed Channel.
