Reed Sorensen has a ride for
Speedweeks 2012. The Peachtree, Ga., native has signed to drive the No. 52 NASCAR
Nationwide Series Chevrolet for Means Motorsports, owned by former NASCAR
Sprint Cup Series driver Jimmy Means.

Sorenson finished the 2011 ranked
fifth in Nationwide Series championship points, despite being released by
Turner Motorsports late in the season and finishing the year with MacDonald
Motorsports. He is a four-time Nationwide winner, along with two poles and 85
top-10 finishes. He also has seven seasons of experience in the headline Sprint
Cup Series, with 15 career Top-10 finishes.
Team owner Jimmy Means
commented on the signing, saying, “Means Motorsports is certainly excited about
our chances of getting off to a great start this season, especially when you
consider Reed's skills, experience, and the strong fifth place finish he had in
last year's event. We have had some success with sponsorship for the first race
of the season and we can only assume the opportunities will increase with the
addition of Sorensen as our driver."
