Turn One Racing is pleased to announce that Long Pond, Pennsylvania native and NYC college student, Chase Mattioli, will make his NASCAR Camping World Truck Series debut in the inaugural Pocono Mountains 125 this Saturday at Pocono Raceway, as a teammate to Stacy Compton and the #60 SafeAuto Insurance Chevrolet. The same day, 20-year old Chase will double down, competing in the Weis Markets / ARCA 125 as well. Mattioli will drive the #64 Chevrolet Silverado in the 50-lap event at the 2.5-mile triangular track. “We are really excited to work with this outstanding up-and-coming young talent this weekend at Pocono Raceway,” said Stacy Compton, owner of Turn One Racing. “We have had a lot of success this year with Narain Karthikeyan driving for us, and it will be great to see this remarkable young man be successful in our trucks. We have always had the intention of expanding our team to a two-truck operation and there is no better time than now to make that happen. Pocono Raceway is Chase’s home track and we are really excited about the chance to put him in top-quality equipment in front of his hometown crowd.”(Chase Mattioli PR)(7-27-2010)

UPDATE 2: Chase Mattioli will race at his hometown track at Pocono Raceway this Saturday with a new sponsor, Pepsi MAX. The newly branded zero calorie beverage from Pepsi will grace the hood of his #64 Chevy truck for Chase’s NASCAR Camping World Truck series debut. This also marks the first time that the Camping World Series has run an event at this track. The 20-year-old Fordham University junior has been racing for nearly 13 years and PepsiCo was there from the start. Pepsi’s Mountain Dew brand served as his first official sponsor while competing in the midgets at the age of 7.”(Chase Mattioli PR)(7-30-2010)
