Jennifer Jo Cobb to attempt NASCAR Busch Series Debut at Homestead-Miami Speedway

KCR (Keith Coleman Racing) forms partnership with Vassarette

Eddyville, KY - Never content to rest on their laurels, Keith Coleman Racing (KCR) is to set to shake up the racing world again with the formation of a second team that will debut in the Busch Series' final race of the season.

KCR has announced an agreement with Vassarette to sponsor the number 50 Chevrolet Monte Carlo in the Ford Championship 300 on November 20 at Homestead-Miami Speedway.

"We are very excited to be a part of the KCR team," said Art DeCesaro, Vice President / General Manager of Vassarette. "In a very short time they have proven themselves to be an organization that possesses a single-minded determination to race at the front of the pack each week."

"We've been talking for a couple of weeks and it became apparent very quickly that this was an association that made sense for both sides," said Keith Coleman, team owner. "Our goal every week is to field a competitive race car and be in position to win at the end of the race. Vassarette wants that too."

The car will be driven by Jennifer Jo Cobb, an up and coming driver who has been racing since 1991. She has amassed more than 60 career victories on four different racing series in that time. Most recently, she has competed in the ARCA Re/Max series and has three top-10 finishes to her credit in five career starts.

Cobb will be competing in the first Busch Series race of her career. She will be looking to gain valuable experience to use in 2005 when she will be competing for the Busch Series' Rookie of the Year award.

"This is the opportunity I've been waiting for," said Cobb. "It is my chance to run with the best drivers in the business and prove that I belong."

"Jennifer fits the mold we look for at KCR," Coleman said. "She is talented and determined to make the most of her opportunities. We think she'll open a few eyes in Homestead."

Jennifer will attempt to qualify for the race on Thurs., Nov. 18th and the race will be televised live on NBC at 12-Noon central.
