Tony Eury, Jr. has a new job |
"We have a long-term
vision for Swan Racing and the addition of Tony Jr. is another step in that
process. Tony brings a world of experience to Swan Racing and will be part of
our long-term success," said Davis.
"I am really impressed
with the team Swan Racing is building and I am proud to be part of it,"
said Eury. "I am looking forward to working with David Stremme behind the
wheel and with competition director Steve Hmiel."
Eury began his NASCAR career in 1991 when he was hired to work for Dale
Earnhardt, Inc. He has been a part of 19 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series victories
with Michael Waltrip and Dale Earnhardt Jr. including twice winning the
Budweiser Shootout in 2003 and 2008. In 2006, Earnhardt qualified for the Chase
for the NASCAR Sprint Cup and finished 5th in points with Eury making the calls
on race day. Most recently, Eury was Danica Patrick's crew chief and co-owner of
the JR Motorsports NASCAR Nationwide Series team, which won the Coors Light
Pole in Daytona for the 2012 Drive 4COPD 300.
"Tony Jr. has pretty
much done it all from tire changer to crew chief. His experience and knowledge
will be pivotal to the success of Swan Racing," said competition director
Steve Hmiel.
Driver of the No. 30 Toyota,
David Stremme said, "The team has transformed itself virtually overnight.
It's hard to believe just how different this team is in such a short period of
time. This is how you build success from the ground up; you hire quality
people, put their experience to work and execute on race day. Lets go
racing."
Swan Racing is located in
Mooresville, N.C., and will get its horsepower from Triad Racing Technologies.
Dave, this one bothers me. I hope he is not the next Bobby Ginn. After reading of him and visiting the website, I am not sure what to think...................
