Driven2win, unites fierce competitors to become “Dynamic Duo”

Driven2Win.net, Inc., a Florida based Sport-Compact Drag Racing School, and specialty parts manufacturer and retailer, announced the addition of Multi-Time Sport Compact World Champion driver Lisa Kubo to their staff.

Lisa joins 2003-2004 NHRA PRO/FWD Sport Compact Champion Nelson Hoyos as one of the companies’ highly skilled featured instructors.

Lisa has a long list of “first female” accomplishments in addition to being the only driver to win three consecutive Sport Compact championships. Lisa and Nelson are very passionate about their racing in the same way we are passionate about our business Driven2win, said Director of Motorsports, Marla Hoyos. Besides her duties as an instructor and professional driver, Lisa will play an important role promoting Driven2Win’s ANTI-STREET RACING MESSAGE to their core audience.

“The widespread trend of illegal street racing has extended into the professional racing community, said Hoyos. Auto manufacturers, aftermarket-parts companies, professional drag racers and sanctioning bodies are not only concerned with injuries caused by illegal street racing but also the negative implications that it puts on the sport in general. It is the vision of the Driven2win team to create a coalition of companies and individuals within the professional racing industry with the goal of, providing racing enthusiast with education about the hazards and potentially deadly effects of illegal street racing and encourage drivers to “get it off the street and take it to the track”

In addition to Lisa’s great celebrity instructor role, we saw other benefits as well. Our Driven2Win team will develop the first all female Professional drag racing team in Sport Compact history. The new team owned by Marla Hoyos, will be driven by Lisa, and marketed by an all female firm, while Nelson will serve as a technical consultant to the team. Lisa’s new ride will be one of the companies’ 6 second 200+ MPH Cobalt PRO/RWD Jerry Bickel built racecars to be campaigned in the NHRA and NOPI Sport Compact racing series events.

Nelson Hoyos will continue to drive for GM Racing for 2005, debuting a new Cobalt PRO/FWD championship racecar. “I very proud to continue with the factory sponsored GM Racing program, as a team driver, in our quest for a 3rd record setting championship, said Nelson”

In conjunction with our Driving School, and Drag Racing Program, Driven2Win’s, business plan includes a Chevrolet “Tuner Cobalt” performance parts Dealer program. Our goal is to introduce the 4500 Chevy dealerships nationwide to our marketing partner products and give them the opportunity to become involved in this exciting $3 billion Sport Compact industry. Our program is a great example of taking a complete Motorsports package to the performance minded retail consumer. This multi-faceted business plan positions Lisa Kubo and Nelson Hoyos in the forefront of Sport Compact Drag Racing, giving consumers and fans the opportunity to join the Dynamic Duo in their championship quest while delivering the message of “Keep it off the Streets and take it to the tracks”

“I am extremely excited about all of the possibilities given to me by Nelson and Marla Hoyos. Their Driven2Win, business plan is a sponsors dream with diversified programs that extend beyond the drivers seat. This partnership gives me an opportunity to showcase my driving talents on and off the track while providing valuable educational contributions to the Sport Compact community. I look forward to driving their championship caliber racecar and taking my all female team to the winners circle. Watch out guys here we come-Lisa Kubo”
