Odle Motorsports, Inc. is proud to announce that they are joining forces with Tony Stewart Racing Enterprises with current Hooters Pro Cup driver Shelby Howard at the wheel.  Shelby Howard will continue the 2006 Pro Cup season, where he is currently 7th in the points standing.  He'll also look into the future with Odle Motorsports/Speedco in the NASCAR Busch Series, possibily starting with as many as three Busch races before the end of 2006.  (For information on Shelby Howard log on to www.shelbyhoward.com.)

Team owner, Darin Odle is excited about the move: "With today's racing environment, race teams combining forces is often the most effective way to move t the next level."  Odle went on to share his disappointment about the one unfortunate consequence of this move, saying goodbye to driver L.W. Miller and the young crew we assembled.  "L.W. is an excellent driver who fits very well with my personality and whom I have enjoyed racing with this season.  L.W. recognized this was a great opportunity for Odle Motorsports and Speedco and encouraged us to go forward with the merger," said Darin.

Odle Motorsports, Inc., would like to take a moment to thank Speedco for all their encouragement and support in our racing career so far and in the future.  And a special thank you goes to all of our Associate sponsors: Baldwin Filters, All star, Hawk Brakes, Diamond Pistons, Ultra Tech, Poynter Drywall, Hauk Signs, Jackson Oil and Solvents, US Insurance, Transtar, Safe Quip, Tiger Rear Ends, and Delta Welding Supply.  Darin is very thankful for all these sponsors and others who have helped us get to this new and exciting level in racing.

The Odle Motorsports/Speedco team and Shelby Howard will run their first race together this Saturday, July 15th, at Motor Mile Speedway in Radford, VA.  Look for Shelby behind Speedco logo on the car #20.
