After competing for
Rookie of the Year honors in 2012 and collecting his career-best series finish
of eighth at Pocono Raceway, Townley enters his second full-time season
credited with 28 total starts.
"I'm a competitive
race car driver, and I want to race and compete for wins," said the
22-year old Georgia resident. "Red Horse Racing has worked hard and
continues to excel in the truck series. The success that this Red Horse Racing
organization was able to accomplish last season, is the same success we are
looking forward to next year."
Veteran crew chief Mike
Beam will join John Wes Townley at Red Horse Racing on the No. 7 Toyota Tundra.
Beam has been atop the pit box since the early 80's and is credited with 25
national series victories.
"The Truck Series
proved to be the most competitive series in 2012, said Beam. "I want to be
a part of that, and be a part of one of the top-tiered teams in the series.
Playing an integral part in John's career is important to me and I'm anxious to
see our results."
Team Principal, Tom
DeLoach said of the signing, "John showed vast improvement on the track
this past season. Red Horse Racing is eager to move him to the next level in
his racing career. Pairing him with Mike Beam is a great way to give John the
insight from Mike's impressive background. We had a fantastic 2012 season and
we are anxious to see what 2013 will hold."
