David Stremme and the No. 40 TUMS Dodge Team Facts:
Heartburn and Indigestion No More: At least not for the No. 40 TUMS Dodge driver David Stremme. Stremme’s No. 40 Dodge Charger will feature a stunning new blue design that showcases TUMS signature logo across the hood and both rear quarter panels. The rear of the Charger will feature TUMS trusted tablets. Fans and drivers should keep TUMS nearby this weekend for fast relief from the vibrant Chicago cuisine.
Take Me Out to the Ball Game: After they are done racing at Chicagoland Speedway this weekend, Chip Ganassi Racing with Felix Sabates (CGRFS) drivers Reed Sorenson, David Stremme and Juan Pablo Montoya will head out to Wrigley Field to take in the Chicago Cubs baseball game Monday night. Sorenson, Stremme and Montoya will roll up to the game in the No. 41 Wrigley’s Juicy Fruit® Dodge, the No. 40 Wrigley’s Winterfresh® Dodge and the No. 42 Wrigley’s Big Red® Dodge that they will drive from the Wm. Wrigley Jr. Company headquarters on Michigan Avenue. Sorenson is scheduled to throw out the first pitch and then Stremme and Montoya will join him in leading the baseball crowd to the seventh inning stretch song, “Take me out to the ball game.” Game time for the Cubs is 7 p.m. ET Monday, July 16. The game will broadcast live on ESPN.
Home Sweet Home: Well, close anyways. David Stremme will get a small glimpse of home this weekend at Chicago. Stremme grew up in South Bend. Ind., just a few hours away from the Chicagoland Speedway.
Back to Green: David Stremme made his NASCAR Nextel Cup Series debut starting 31st in the No. 39 Dodge at Chicagoland Speedway in 2005. His 16th- place finish was his best of the four NEXTEL Cup Series starts that season. In 2006, Stremme finished 21st at Chicagoland in his first season as the full-time driver of the No. 40 Dodge.
Mobile: The TUMS “Dinermobile” also will travel to Chicagoland Speedway where it will deliver fast relief for fans at the Fan Midway area July 13th through 15th.
Chassis: David Stremme will pilot chassis #704 in Chicago this weekend to run the USG Sheetrock 400. Crew Chief Steve Lane and the TUMS Dodge team most recently used this chassis in Michigan in mid June.
