Frank Aces Rebound In USAR Run
Not
originally planned to participate in this event with his normal Odle
Motorsports organization, a late-minute deal was put together in
collaboration with MPM Marketing and Teddy Jones Racing to put Frank
in the seat of the No. 56 with support from personal sponsors
Speedco and Lucas Oil. Knowing
that their would have to be some serious last minute preparation on
his No. 56 Chevrolet, Frank was prepared to do what ever was
necessary in the interest of racing. During
practice, the team would fiercely work to adequately setup and
prepare their Chevrolet bow-tie for competition. With only 25 laps
or so fulfilled in practice, the group knew that they had a solid
race car beneath them – they just needed luck to stay on their
side. In
qualifying, Frank bolted his machine to the sixth fastest time
overall, putting him on the outside of row number three. Not fazed
by the time trials performance, Frank was hoping to strut his stuff
during the White’s International Trucks 250 presented by Dave’s
Discount Furniture. A
quiet but competitive race saw Frank hover in the top-five but
flawless pit stops by his Teddy Jones Racing team not to mention
devotion on-track by Frank propelled him across the start finish
line third, racking up another podium finish to his USAR resume. “There
are a lot of people to thank for this finish,” offered Frank.
“Speedco, Lucas Oil, USAR, my family, friends and God. The
willingness to do whatever it takes to drive thrived my ambition on
and off the track at Ace Speedway. We weren’t 100 percent prepared
when we arrived, but I feel the time that we utilized during
practice – proved to be a benefit allowing us to cross the
“T’s” and dot the “I’s” ensuring that we would have a
crystal clean race.” He
continued, “we played it smart, knowing that we had a lot invested
and it paid off with a good finish.” Round
three for the USARacing Pro Cup Series is set for April 16 at Dillon
(S.C.) Motor Speedway. In
79 USARacing Pro Cup Series starts, A.J. Frank has amassed 26
top-fives, 45 top-10s, 387 laps led and 16,854 laps run during his
