South Point Racing and Kroyer Racing Engines announced today that the #77 South Point Chevy driven by Brendan Gaughan will be powered by PME engines built by Mark Smith for the first two races of the Craftsman Truck Series season. Smith’s engines will be under the hood of the #77 at Daytona International Speedway and California Speedway. In addition to building a new Chevrolet engine program, Kroyer has also been busy with his off-road racing engine program. In November, a team carrying his engine claimed the SCORE Trophy Truck championship for the second consecutive season. He has also competed in and won the overall title in his first off-road race of the 2007 season with 11 vehicles running Kroyer Racing Engines. With all the additional work and the strain on time, Kroyer decided to lease engines from Mark Smith and PME and use the extra time to develop his engine program.(South Point Racing PR)(1-31-2007)
