No. 23 Stacker 2/Stamina RX Chevrolet Monte Carlo
Nashville Superspeedway - June 7, 2003

Wimmer on Nashville Superspeedway: Scott Wimmer, driver of the No. 23 Stacker 2/Stamina RX Chevrolet, is looking forward to racing at Nashville Superspeedway this weekend, especially since it is a concrete track.

"Nashville is one of the nicest facilities that the Busch Series races at, probably since it is one of the newest ones," said Wimmer. "The track is only going to get better with age as the more we run on it, the more the groove will widen out and the more racing we'll see. I have always run well there, due in part the layout of the track as well as its concrete surface. We just raced on a concrete surface last week at Dover, so it will be nice that we can use some of those notes to help out this weekend."

Spring Race at Nashville: During the spring race at Nashville earlier this year, Wimmer finished outside the top-10 for the first time.

"I was really disappointed with our finish earlier this year at Nashville," said Wimmer. "We had a strong car and were working our way to the front. We were running in ninth and the car was handling great, just a little bit loose off the corners and then a lapped car took us out. It was so upsetting and that's kind of how our luck had been going at that point. We've made some improvements and I'm looking forward to getting the chance to redeem ourselves this weekend."

Sponsor Switch Up: Stamina RX will take its second turn as the primary sponsor on the No. 23 Chevy this weekend at Nashville and since it is a night race, the car will carry reflective decals.

Night Racing: Wimmer has raced 13 times at night in his NASCAR Busch Series career and of those starts, he has finished in the top-10 nine times.

Concrete Tracks: Of the 14 times Wimmer has raced on concrete surfaces, he has posted one win and nine top-10 finishes, with an average finish of 9.48.

Equipment: The Stacker 2/Stamina RX Racing team is taking the same car to Nashville that competed earlier this year at Nashville, where it was running in the top-10 before getting taken out by a lap car.
