Blaney to Drive the No. 36 Accell Construction Chevrolet in Subway Fresh Fit 500
MOORESVILLE, N.C. (February 23, 2011) – Oklahoma-based Accell Construction will partner with Tommy Baldwin Racing (TBR) for the Subway Fresh Fit 500 Sunday, February 27th. Dave Blaney will pilot the No. 36 Accell Construction Chevrolet in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series (NSCS) event at Phoenix International Raceway (PIR).
Accell Construction is a full-service site civil contractor for the petroleum terminal and bulk storage industries. The Oklahoma company specializes in tank farm construction, tank foundations and other related site civil construction. The 20-year old company operates civil construction projects in numerous states across the U.S.
Although this will be the first NSCS race for Accell Construction, the company partnered with teams in the NASCAR Camping World Series and ARCA Racing Series in the past. “We are proud to represent the pipeline terminal storage construction industry in the NASCAR world with this partnership,” explained owner Stephen Todhunter.
TBR had a strong performance at Daytona International Speedway last weekend in the Daytona 500, as Blaney drove through the field before a late-race incident relegated the team to a 26th-place finish. Scheduled to run 16 complete races, TBR continues to seek partnerships for the entirety of the 2011 NSCS season.
“We had a good showing at Daytona,” explained TBR owner Tommy Baldwin. “We are very excited to have Accell Construction on board at Phoenix. It shows we have a lot more going on than just Daytona, and we can implement programs that can enhance any company’s marketing plans.”
The No. 36 Accell Construction Chevrolet will hit the track for practice Friday, February 25th at 12:30 p.m. MST. The green flag will wave for the Subway Fresh Fit 500 Sunday, February 27th at 1 p.m. MST.
