For the second consecutive year, TriStar Motorsports welcomes Ingersoll Rand back for the 2014 NASCAR Nationwide Series season. Ingersoll Rand, a global leader in air compressors, tools, fluid management and material handling equipment, will serve as an associate sponsor on all of TriStar Motorsports Toyota Camry’s for the 33-race Nationwide Series schedule. Additionally, Ingersoll Rand will run five primary races with the #44 TriStar Motorsports Camry, with their first race at Phoenix International Raceway on March 1, 2014. ARCA Racing Series regular, Will Kimmel, will be in the cockpit of the #44 Ingersoll Rand Toyota Camry throughout the five primary events. Kimmel, the nephew of 10-time ARCA Racing Series Champion Frank Kimmel, has had an enduring relationship with Ingersoll Rand since 2012. Kimmel, who races for his family owned team Kimmel Racing, scored seven top five and 19 top-10 finishes across his six year tenure in the ARCA Racing Series. Phoenix will be Kimmel’s second Nationwide Series start. After Kimmel’s first Nationwide Series race at Phoenix in March, he will check-off an item on his bucket list two weeks later and try to tame the half-mile concrete oval of Bristol Motor Speedway in Bristol, Tennessee. The remaining three of Kimmel’s Nationwide Series starts are still to be determined and will be announced at a later date.(TriStar Motorsports)
