Wolfgang Joins Forces with Williams 7K Team!

(Bill W) It's the season to start thinking about some sprint car racing, and the weekly Knoxville roster in both the 410 and 360 classes are changing almost by the day. This release was put out yesterday concerning Robby Wolfgang joining forces at Knoxville with the Bruce Williams' #7K team...

The driver for the 7K Sprint Car for the 2010 Racing Season will be Robby Wolfgang. Robby will be racing weekly in the 410 Division at Knoxville Raceway and in both the 360 and 410 Divisions in select races in the surrounding area.

At only seventeen years old, Robby has eight years of racing under his belt and has already made a name for himself in the Motorcross arena with over 150 wins, and is now working to achieve the same success on four wheels instead of two. Robby has already driven to several wins in a 360 up north in South Dakota and hopes to transfer that success to the 410 division.

The 7K team welcomes DeeZee Manufacturing on board as a new sponsor this year. Info2go, Phillips Floors and WillCo Services will remain the other major sponsors. Parker Signs will continue as an associate sponsor. We welcome on board Butlerbuilt as a new associate sponsor for 2010. This year we will be running Charlie Fisher Engines and Wolfweld chassis, DMI components, HRP wings and Keizer Wheels. The 7K Team would like to thank Ken and Craig of Heartland Racing Engines out of Nevada, Iowa for stocking necessary supplies and for the use of their new dyno facility for engine testing.

We are very excited to have Robby join our team for the 2010 season. We look forward to adding some Knoxville victories to his resume. For further information and racing updates on Robby, please visit his website at www.RobbyWolfgang.com.
