FitzBradshaw Racing will field the # 83 Aarons Dream Machine Chevy in the Samsung/Radio Shack 500 on March 30, 2003 at Texas Motor Speedway. The car will be driven by Kerry Earnhardt. Earnhardt was slated to drive the #83 Aarons Dream Machine in select Winston Cup Series races during the 2002 season, however, rain cancelled qualifying for all events. Those were FitzBradshaw’s first attempts in the Winston Cup Series and no owner points had been accumulated. Were excited about this race, Earnhardt said. We tried a couple times last year to make races in the Aarons Dream Machine, and each time we tried we got rained out. It was a pretty big joke around the garage.
This is great for us, FitzBradshaw co-owner Armando Fitz said. Were going to have two Busch Series cars competing in Texas, plus Kerry in the Aarons Dream Machine for the Cup race. Were taking huge steps in the direction we need to in order to be a competitive team in NASCAR. Earnhardt, who has tentative plans to run several more Winston Cup races this year, will be joined in the Texas Busch Series race by Jimmy Spencer, who will be piloting the #82 Jani-King Chevrolet for FitzBradshaw Racing.(FitzBradshaw Racing PR)(3-24-2003)
