The HT Motorsports #59, located in the Virginia Motorsports Technology Center (VMTC), adjacent to Arrington Manufacturing on Motorsports Drive in Martinsville, Virginia announces its 2005 racing line up. Robert Pressley returns to drive the HT Motorsports #59 for the entire truck series schedule in 2005 and is very excited about the opportunity to return to a team that is building a platform for education and development of future stars of the racing industry. Robert will team with NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series championship crew chief, Fred Graves, who is returning to the truck series after several years in both the Cup and Busch Series as a crew chief and engineer. Grave’s vast experience will provide an opportunity for (VMTC) and HT Motorsports to become successful partners with Patrick Henry Community College, and produce quality craftsmen for all phases of the racing business. HT Motorsports will move into their new 25,000 square foot, building in Martinsville at the end of February. HT Motorsports has opportunities for sponsorships available.

UPDATE: M-Select, the new brand of high performance oil pumps and engine parts from Melling, is pleased to announce our association with Jim Harris’ HT Motorsports #59 Dodge and driver Robert Pressley to compete in the 2005 Nascar Craftsman Truck Series. Melling has a successful history with both Pressley and Harris. This led Mark Melling, president of M-Select/Melling Engine Parts, to ink a deal sponsoring Pressley in the Florida Dodge Dealers 250 at Daytona, and then as an associate sponsor for the remainder of the season. M-Select Performance Parts were introduced in December 2004 at the Performance Racing Industry Trade show. Our catalog containing oil pumps, camshafts, timing components, valve train parts, and cylinder sleeves will debut in March 2005.
