"I have been friends with Dale and Shane for a long time and I really admire how they handle themselves both on and off the racetrack. With different businesses and family obligations taking up the bulk of my time, I just don't have the time to race like I need to and like you have to these days to keep up with everything that is going on with these cars. Aligning ourselves with Dale and Shane will not only help their program with added resources, but it will strengthen Kinzer Motorsports as well being in the same equipment and having their expertise and experience at our disposal."
