Milwaukee, Wisconsin (March 10, 2009) –Jeff Courtney is anxious to return to the SPEED World Challenge GT Series at the track in Sebring, Florida. Kenda Tires is again teaming up with Courtney for 2009, as Courtney’s major sponsor.“I’m really excited to have Jimmy Yang and every one at Kenda Tires back on board,” says Courtney. “Kenda’s support has been very important to me over the past few years, as well as my other supporting sponsors, Coins of America, RecSTUFF.com, JG Wheels and Badger Components.
In the 2008 season, Courtney finished 8th in the points standings overall and this year he is pushing to pass that benchmark. “Last year we had some great opportunities that unfortunately slipped past us, this year our goal is to capitalize on every chance for success,” said Courtney.
“I’m also glad to be back in the familiar seat of the #99 Viper Competition Coupe with the support of the entire Woodhouse Performance Team,” says Courtney. He is currently slated to race the #99 car for the first two races in Sebring, Florida and Long Beach, California.
When asked about any changes to the cars this year, Courtney replied, “The Woodhouse Performance Team always does a great job, I’m confident in what we will bring to the track.”
SPEED World Challenge has teamed with WC Vision for increased marketing and merchandising operations. Internal Combustion Group will be producing the broadcasts of all of the SPEED World Challenge races with enhanced video and audio features.
“I look forward to a great season,” says Courtney, “I can’t wait to get back to the track!”
