Mooresville, NC (September 15, 2003) – Leilani Münter returns to the NASCAR Weekly Series presented by Dodge on September 20 under the lights at Caraway Speedway in Asheboro, North Carolina. Münter is scheduled to make her sophomore run in the series racing the No. 39 Evernham Performance Parts Dodge late model owned by David Dunlap with a motor supplied by Maurice Petty and Associates.

"I am honored to have this opportunity to continue racing through the Evernham Motorsports Research & Development program," said Münter. "Ray has given me a chance to show what I can do on the track and I am thankful for the opportunity."

Münter is sponsored by Evernham Performance Parts. Evernham Performance Parts sells and manufactures new performance parts for oval track and drag racing, and is a distributor of Dodge Motorsports and Mopar Performance Parts. Evernham Performance Parts also sells used transmissions, rear gears, brakes and engine parts that were used by Evernham Motorsports.

"Leilani has the potential and desire to become one of the top drivers in the next generation of racing stars," said Andy Hillenburg, who worked with Münter at Atlanta Motor Speedway in October 2002. "She’s not intimidated. She’s not a good ‘woman’ driver. She’s just a good driver."

Münter made her debut in the NASCAR Weekly Series Presented by Dodge in a late model on April 26 at South Boston Speedway where she finished ninth in the Coors Light 150. Münter began racing stock cars in 2001 in the Allison Legacy Series. She relocated to North Carolina in 2002 where she began working in race shops and driving race cars.
