JOSH WELLER REFLECTS ON 2011, PLANS STILL UNCERTAIN FOR 2012, CHRIS WEISS LOOKS TO RUN ENTIRE 2012 RISLONE URC SPRINT SERIES

The "Wild Child" Josh Weller reflects on the 2011 Rislone URC Sprint Series that saw him score one feature win and finish an impressive third in the overall point chase. Weller's victory came at the New Egypt Speedway driving his family owned #63. Later in the season, Weller filled the seat of the Kathy and Pat Palladino #99 and delivered solid performances that earned Josh a third place finish in the driver point chase.

A big disappointment for the Weller/Palladino Team came at the September 4 Georgetown Speedway event. While leading, the nose wing mount broke on the #99, slowing the car dramatically with the possible feature win going right out the window. Weller certainly wanted to give the Palladino's that big win in the first state.

At present, with the Palladino Team announcing that they will park their car for most of the season, Weller is now ride or sponsor hunting to get the family owned #63 back on the track and in contention to chase down that coveted 2012 Rislone URC Sprint Series Championship.

For Josh Weller 2011 also marked the birth of their first child, a daughter Aubrey. In review of his favorite tracks, Weller commented. "Grandview is my type of track especially when the track slicks off. I like small quick race tracks that seem to take a little more self control to do well. We have always seemed to shine on slick more technical tracks, but Grandview has always been one of my favorites". Weller added, "Grandview is also my home track and I have lots of friends, fans and family at the track. I have also run more races there then I have at other tracks, running the Thunder races with the WOO, USAC and other non-sanctioned 410 races."

Weller is without a doubt, one of URC's top contenders always clean on the track and professional with his pit side conduct and always displays great fan appeal.

JC Motorsports and Chris Weiss of East Texas, PA announced today that they do plan on running the entire 2012 Rislone URC Sprint Series.

Weiss is pleased to announce that TnT Scrap Metal of Brooklyn, NY, Cargo Trailers in Lansdale and Trio Provisions & Smokehaus in East Texas, PA will be their sponsor for 2012. Engines and machine work is being done by Bob Silfies of Silfies Race Engines in Easton, PA Paint and vinyl is provided by Bruce Bowen of Bowen Signs and Lettering. Associate sponsors include Simpson, CFI Fiberglass in Hanover, PA, RAACE, Hoffman Speed Supplies in New Tripoli, PA, Ultra Shield Race Products and GME Steerings in New Ringgold's, PA.
