The Lester Buildings #56 Chevrolet returns to NASCAR Busch Series action this weekend with the running of the Pepsi 300 at Nashville Superspeedway. For Mac Hill Motorsports and driver Tim Sauter, Nashville is a track that holds special moments, memories and a few solid runs. Mac Hill Motorsports Owner Jack McNelly debuted his NBS entry at Nashville Superspeedway on June 8, 2002 when Richard Mitchell piloted the team to a 34th place finish. An accident just past the race’s halfway point wiped out a 25th place qualifying effort. Less than two years later, MHM would return to Nashville with driver Regan Smith who would give McNelly and the team their highest finishing spot ever by finishing 17th. Mac Hill Motorsports also finished 17th in July of 2003 at New Hampshire with current MHM driver Tim Sauter at the controls. Sauter has also had his share of success on the Music City’s 1.33 mile, concrete tri-oval. One of his nine career NBS top-tens came at Nashville in April of 2002, when he took a starting position of 14th and ran it to a 10th place finish. Later that same season, Sauter claimed one of his six career NBS top-ten starting positions when he qualified 7th for the Inside Traxx 300. A blown engine while leading the race left Sauter with a 32nd place finish. After Nashville, Mac Hill Motorsports will take the Lester Buildings Chevrolet to Bristol Motor Speedway next weekend for the Sharpie Professional 250. Lester Buildings and Mac Hill Motorsports are continuing to develop activation plans for the sponsorship, which include a Busch series-exclusive building sweepstakes in which one lucky fan will win a 1,200 square foot Lester hobby/storage building, valued at $25,000 in a season-end drawing. Also, Lester is extending to the Racing Community an exclusive rebate offer of 50 cents per square foot, which can save $2,000 on a 50′ x 80′ structure. Plans also include activation through their new joint web-site: www.machillmotorsports.com.
