DeWitt, Michigan (April 17, 2014) – Super Late Model standout, Chad Finley will make his NASCAR K&N Pro Series

East debut in the Blue Ox 100 on Friday, April 25th at the 0.75-mile oval of Richmond (Va.) International Raceway. This

event is the first of up to five scheduled races within the developmental series within NASCAR.

"I'm really looking forward to getting back in a stock car. It has been a long time coming and I couldn't think of a better

place to start it off then RIR,” remarked Finley of heading to the Old Dominion State. "It has been a place I have always

wanted to race at since I was a kid and this opportunity means the world to me. I really look forward to the weekend

and to go after the trophy with all of our marketing partners who have helped us get here,” he added.

Finley is no stranger to racing in K&N type machines having competed in 11 career ARCA Racing Series presented by

Menards starts between 2009 and 2010. In those starts, Finley recorded three top-five finishes, all of them podium

finishes of third, which came at Berlin (Mich.) Raceway, Pocono (Pa.) Raceway and at Rockingham (N.C.) Speedway.

He also collected six top-10 showings, along-with nine top-15s. Finley also picked up one Menards Pole Award, which

came at Rockingham in the 2009 season finale.

"Running the ARCA cars a few years back was a lot of fun,” sounded Finley. “We drove for

Brad (Keselowski) then and we always had fast race cars with a great chance to win." The

22-year-old from DeWitt, Michigan continued, "ARCA is a great series as well and I

learned a lot there. Hopefully that will apply to these K&N cars, which are surprisingly

pretty similar in a wide variety of ways."

Jeff Finley, father and car owner of Chad Finley Racing offered, "This is just another step

in this long process of getting too or hoping to race in the NASCAR ranks for Chad in the

future. He has all the talent to be a great driver and sponsor representative. I just don't

have the money personally to get him where he needs to be. Hopefully, we can showcase

our talents in this series and make another step in the right direction.

"We really need to thank all of our marketing partners for helping us get to this point that's

for sure. A big thank you to Brad Keselowski Racing. They have been great with some

technical support, as well as providing Shane Whitbeck to crew chief our effort,” offered

the appreciatively elder Finley. "Brad was in our shoes not too long ago and understands

what I am trying to do as a father. So we would like to thank him personally for helping us

as well.”

As for the remainder of the 2014 racing season and in addition to select appearances in the NASCAR K&N Pro Series East, Finley will also run in several high-profile Super Late Model races throughout the country with a primary focus on the ARCA / CRA Super Series Powered by JEGS. He'll also run events within the JEGS / CRA All-Stars Tour presented by Chevrolet Performance, ARCA Midwest Tour and the Southern Super Series. On some off weekends, Finley will also compete in an Outlaw Bodied Pro Late Model closer to home at Owosso (Mich.) Speedway.

For the Blue Ox 100, Finley's No. 29 Ford will carry sponsorship support and decals from Auto Value Parts Stores & Certified Service Centers, as well as AutoParts2020.com, The Air Lift Company, XLT Engineering, NorthsideTowing.net, Five Star Racecar Bodies, Bassett Racing Wheels, Affordable Tire & Service, Bosch Spark Plugs, Hyperco Suspension, Maurer’s Textiles, Superior Racing Images and M.P.H.
