James Buescher Back At Win-Tron Racing Controls At Michigan

BROOKLYN, Michigan (June 10, 2009) - - James Buescher will have a busy weekend at Michigan International Speedway. In addition to running the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series event on Saturday, Buescher will return to the controls of the No. 32 Wolfpack Rentals TOYOTA Camry for Win-Tron Racing in the ARCA RE/MAX Series for Friday’s Racing for Wildlife 200.

And while the pressure to run two races on the same weekend can get to any driver, there’s even more pressure for Buescher on Friday night as the Plano, Texas native as won in both of his starts this year for the Lakeville, Minnesota based team.

In February, Buescher powered his way through all the carnage and captured his first superspeedway win. Last month in his first start since the Daytona triumph, Buescher went back to victory lane at Kentucky Speedway recording his third career victory in the ARCA RE/MAX Series.

Now Buescher sets his sights on Michigan international Speedway and its two-mile oval looking to make it three-for-three. Ironically, Buescher has never competed in a race at the famed Irish Hills track which is a similar story to the Bluegrass track of Kentucky Speedway.

The team did however participate in the open-test at Michigan International Speedway last month with satisfactory results. Not 100 percent pleased with the performance, the team went back to work on their Camry and feel that with their motor and the adjustments made to the car, Buescher will have no problem finding himself in the running.

“James is confident about this weekend,” said Nate Thiesse, co-owner and general manager of Win-Tron Racing. “We tested a couple weeks ago and it didn’t exactly go as planned but we know that when we come back to the race, we are always much better. It’s not going to be an easy task on Friday, but we’ll be ready, that’s for sure.”

Since 2007, Buescher has 16 career ARCA RE/MAX Series starts with three victories at USA International Speedway (March 2007), Daytona International Speedway (February 2009) and Kentucky Speedway (May 2009). He has six top-five finishes and 10 top-10 efforts to his credit. Buescher holds one pole position at Talladega Superspeedway in October 2008. He had led 266 laps in eight RE/MAX Series events.

Entering Michigan, Win-Tron Racing remains second in the ARCA RE/MAX Series owner’s standings after seven races. Unofficially, Car owner Kevin Cywinski is 15 markers behind over first place car owner Jessica Sharp (No. 6). The team retained their spot from their last outing at Pocono Raceway after Matt Merrell finished fifth.
 
The Racing for Wildlife 200 (100 laps / 200 miles) is the eighth of 21 events on the 2009 ARCA RE/MAX Series schedule. The 28th ARCA race at Michigan International Speedway is a two-day show. Practice begins Thursday, June 11 with a two hour practice session planned from 10:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. Menards Pole by Ansell qualifying is set for later in the day slated to begin at 3:00 p.m. The event will take the green flag on Friday, June 12 shortly after 5:15 p.m. The event will live on SPEED. The race will also be broadcasted live through the ARCA Racing Network (ARN) online at arcaracing.com. All times are local.
