NickHolt Posted May 24, 2003 Report Share Posted May 24, 2003 BRH50, Don't forget that at Joe's level publicity is part of the equation. Trey has tons of media contacts that can make a difference down the road for Arramendia Racing. Besides that, Trey is not a bad shoe. He just doesn't have as many laps as his older brother, Ricci Jr. Nick Holt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARAMENDIA_PR_GUY Posted May 24, 2003 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2003 Nick, Just wanted to take a minute to thank you. Your comments always reflect a love of racing and tremendous support for the drivers. You are right on target with your comments about Trey -- he is an asset to the team in many ways but we'll let his driving do the talking at TMS. There are a number of excellent drivers in South Texas, any of whom make for good sponsorship opportunities. For this race, we have three drivers whose abilities complement each other nicely. Enjoy the ride! Joe Elbow Marketing Director Aramendia Motorsports Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
