Special from Cole Williams Racing
15 Year Old Cole Williams ready to make
his 1st JEGS / CRA All-Stars Tour start
Sellersburg, IN (September
14, 2011)
- Sellersburg's own Cole Williams has been preparing for this all
season, his first venture into the Pro Late-Model Touring ranks. After
numerous starts and success in 2011 throughout the
Midwest
in local events, the Williams Race Team will head to Lucas Oil Raceway
Park in Indianapolis, Indiana for the JEGS / CRA All-Stars Fall Brawl
100 Presented by JEGS the weekend of October 1-2.
After picking up 3 National Championships
and 37 feature wins the previous 3 years in different small scaled
touring type cars Cole made the jump to a full size Pro Late-Model for
the 2011 race season.
To start the year the team stayed close to
home and raced at Beech Bend Raceway in Bowling Green, Kentucky. Cole
made the transition to the bigger cars pretty smoothly and in only 2
starts was able to pick up (2) Top 10's and a Top 5 in his last visit
to the facility.
The team then decided to start making the 6
hour journey to the ASA sanctioned I-44 Speedway in Lebanon, Missouri.
Cole had experience at this speedway from 2010 when he had picked up
the MMRA National Championship in the PRO division for 2/3 scale
stock-cars. The full field of Late-Models showed to be the perfect
track for Cole to gain experience. He was able to showcase his
maturity throughout the season and earned respect from his fellow
racers. He finished off with (5) Top 4's in a row including picking up
his first ASA Late-Model sanctioned feature win.
Cole is going into the October race in
Indianapolis with the goal of first, making the field,
and second completing all the laps. Williams Racing has intentions of
running Cole in the full JEGS / CRA All-Star Series in 2012 and
shooting for Rookie of the Year honors. This race should provide them
with a good feel of where their driver and team need to focus going
into the off-season.
Cole will be driving his family owned #46
Chevrolet Impala with a Port City Chassis riding on RE Suspension
shocks and powered by a Phil Harper prepared GM 604 Crate engine
carrying sponsorship from: Jim Butner Auto Sales, JEGS.com, Cardinal
Services, Rite-Way Industries, Jeff Taylor Performance, Dueser
Electric, McAfee Trucking, Wallace Race Car Lettering, Compliance
Safety and Fire, LeBody Shoppe, Heineman Upholstery, and Olymco.
