As the new racing season fast approaches, the Swope Salvage/Leppo Racing #71 sprint car team is looking forward to getting back on track. Brian Leppo says, “The team struggled in early 2009 but, with the addition of legendary sprint car driver Steve Smith as crew chief, we ended the season with good momentum for the new year. Smith joins my long-time crew of Lee Myers, Joe Ross, Keith Sprenkle and brings Dave Garland, his long-time crew member. The team is looking forward to another great season using Spectro products and hope that we can continue this relationship long into the future. ”

“Lee has been maintaining our racing program with Spectro products for years, and Rob Cappetta from Cappetta Competition Engines is just overwhelmed with how our components look at each rebuild. Dave Ely from DMI is impressed with the way our XR2 rearends look at maintenance time, as well. That goes to show what a great product Spectro has.”

The new racing season will find the #71 MACH1 chassis in action weekly at Williams Grove and Lincoln Speedway’s along with both Speedweek series and most all other special events around the area. “We look to make a major improvement over our seventh place point finish at Williams Grove this last season and would like to return to being a front-runner each week at Lincoln, too,” driver Brian Leppo stated. “Everything is in place for us to have a good season.”
