Kahne Looking to Continue Win Streak in Hellmann’s Dodge Charger
Wednesday October 8, 2008
STATESVILLE, N.C. – Kasey Kahne makes his final Nationwide Series appearance of the season Friday at Lowe’s Motor Speedway near Charlotte.
The 28-year-old Washington native will drive the No. 9 Hellmann’s Dodge for Gillett Evernham Motorsports. He has posted two victories in each of the 2005, 2006 and 2007 seasons. In 2008, Kahne started nine races posting a season-best, second-place finish at Bristol in March.
This is GEM’s fifth year of Nationwide competition. The team owns five victories including one at Lowe’s in May 2007.
KASEY KAHNE:
“I’m pumped to head back to Charlotte. It’s a track that the Hellmann’s team and GEM has had a lot of success at. It’s also a track that suites my driving style. You can run the bottom but if you can get your car to work the top, it’s usually pretty fast up there. It allows you to carry a lot of momentum off the corners and that’s ideal for setting yourself up to make passes.
“If there’s any place that the No. 9 Hellmann’s team expects to be competitive it’s Charlotte. We have run really well there the past few years in both series. So we’re excited to try and get this Hellmann’s Dodge to victory lane and continue our streak of winning at least once a year.”
Kahne’s Season: In nine starts, Kahne has led 29 laps, earned one top five and five top-10 finishes. He has two top-five and five top 10 starts. The No. 9 team is 15th in owner points.
Do you want the chance to win a free Frontstretch T-Shirt, and are you really good at talking about NASCAR? Well, we have the perfect opportunity for you. Our staff will be giving away a free T-Shirt to the reader who makes the best post in our Frontstretch Forum between now and the end of the season. So, what makes a good post? It’s pretty hard to impress us, but here are some things we are looking for:
Does your post spark passionate reactions from other readers? Are you commenting on meaningful NASCAR-related events? Do your posts have substance? In other words, “Dale Jr. is the best driver ever” or “Danica Patrick is hot” will not cut it.
So go to the Frontstretch Forums, post early, post often, and post well! We’ll announce the winner following the final race of the season at Homestead.
