Reiser Names Russ Strupp Crew Chief for Visine Racing Team

DENVER, N.C. (July 10) - Team owner Robbie Reiser announced today that Russ Strupp has been named crew chief of the Visine Chevrolets driven by Matt Kenseth and Jason Schuler in the NASCAR Busch Series.

Strupp, a Wisconsin native, has been working with Reiser since the early eighties when Reiser began his driving career in Wisconsin. Reiser formed his own team in 1995, and Strupp moved to North Carolina to work on the cars. When Reiser reduced his daily role at the No. 17 shop in December, Strupp remained on board as car chief.

The Visine Racing Team scored two wins with Matt Kenseth earlier in the season. Driver Jason Schuler's best finish in six races is 14th at New Hampshire International Speedway in May. The team is fifth in points.
