ABF racing ready for the inaugural Indy 250

The No. 30 ABF Chevrolet Impala team will bring chassis TMS-331 to the inaugural Indy 250 at the famed Indianapolis Motor Speedway.


Long time Turner Motorsports partner ABF will again adorn the sides of the No. 30 Chevrolet Impala this weekend in Indianapolis. Established in 1923, ABF is best-in-class for safety, security, technology and freight-handling. InformationWeek, CIO, InfoWorld, and B to B magazines have cited ABF's strategic use of information technology as exemplary. ABF is the only six-time winner of the American Trucking Associations President's Trophy for Safety, the only five-time winner of the Excellence in Security Award, and the only four-time winner of the Excellence in Claims/Loss Prevention Award. ABF also is the only carrier to earn both the Excellence in Claims/Loss Prevention Award and the Excellence in Security Award in the same year, which ABF accomplished twice. 

What a Comeback... James Buescher and his No. 31 NASCAR Camping World Truck Series team captured their third victory of the season last Saturday night at Chicagoland Speedway in dramatic fashion.  The 22-year-old rebounded from being two laps down because of a carburetor change to take the win.  With the victory, Buescher sits 35 points behind point leader Timothy Peters with 12 events left to run on the schedule.

Come and See Me... James Buescher will participate in Saturday's NASCAR Nationwide Series autograph session at Indianapolis Motor Speedway (IMS).  He, along with his Turner Motorsports teammates, will sign autographs for fans on Saturday, July 28th from 10:30 am-11:30 EST right outside the infield pagoda.  The 22-year-old will also make a visit to the Team Chevy display, located in the infield of IMS, on Saturday, July 28th at 2:30 pm EST.

James Buescher on racing at Indianapolis Motor Speedway

"This is going to be a monumental weekend for the NASCAR Nationwide Series.  Indianapolis Motor Speedway is an iconic venue, and to be able to say that I raced in the first Nationwide Series race there is very special.  There is so much rich racing history in Indianapolis.  We have had quite a bit of success at Lucas Oil Raceway at Indianapolis, and I hope that we can carry over that success at the big track.  To be able to kiss the bricks at the end of the day would mean so much to everyone at Turner Motorsports.  We know it is going to be a tough race, but feel like we have as good a shot as any to get our ABF Chevrolet into victory lane."
