CHASE SIGNS AND GRAPHICS WILL AGAIN SPONSOR THE WDRL LATE
MODEL SERIES' ROOKIE OF THE YEAR PROGRAM IN 2009
Company shows its longtime support for the series by taking on the
additional sponsorship for the second year in a row.
GILMAN CITY, MO. (Feb. 23, 2009) -- Chase Signs and Graphics is the 2009
sponsor of the WORLD Dirt Racing League Late Model Series' Rookie of the
Year Program.
Lee Havlik and Josh Anderson, owners of Chase Signs and Graphics, have been
strong supporters of the WORLD Dirt Racing League since it's inception
said WDRL president Jim Wilson. They have been contingency sponsors and much
more.
Chase Signs and Graphics has sponsored the WDRL Hard Luck Award, which
awards a Chase Signs and Graphics certificate to the driver selected by WDRL
officials as having experienced the worst luck of the night at each race.
Chase Signs and Graphics also annually presents the WDRL champion and the
winner of the WDRL Rookie of the Year competition with a free race car wrap.
That's not all. Chase Signs and Graphics provides the lettering on the WORLD
Dirt Racing League Late Model Series tech trailer and the WDRL tow vehicle.
The company also supplies WDRL with WORLD Dirt Racing League decals for the
race cars.
Wilson said Chase Signs and Graphics will continue those existing
sponsorships in 2009 in addition to sponsoring the WORLD Dirt Racing League
Rookie of the Year Program.
We're very excited that Chase Signs and Graphics has agreed to become the
WDRL Rookie of the Year sponsor, said Wilson. The rookie program always
attracts a lot of very good drivers -- Brady Smith, Justin Fegers and John
Kaanta, for example, all have won rookie championships. I think having Chase
Signs and Graphics as the program sponsor will make the rookie championship
even more attractive.
Incidentally, Brady Smith and Justin Fegers both have also won WDRL series
championships, and John Kaanta finished a strong second in series points in
2007 and 2008," Wilson added.
The 2008 Chase Graphics Rookie of the Year, Frank Heckenast finished a very
strong 4th place in the 2008 WORLD Dirt Racing League Series points.
To be eligible as a WORLD Dirt Racing League Rookie of the Year candidate, a
driver must become a WDRL member. Forms are available on the series' web
site, www.worldraceleague.com
Candidates cannot have started more than six WDRL feature events in any one
season and cannot have won a WDRL feature event. Each participant must
complete the application form to be considered for eligibility, which must
be approved by the WDRL office.
The 2009 WDRL season kicks off Saturday, April 4, at Davenport (Iowa)
Speedway, located at the Mississippi Valley Fairgrounds. Sunday, April 5 is
being reserved as a rain date at the half-mile dirt track, if needed.
