Rob Chaney to substitute for injured Jason Martin starting this
weekend!
(2/27/2006 Liberal, KS) When the NOS Energy Drinks/Mafia Motorsports #36
Maxim hits the track this weekend with the World of Outlaws it will have
a familiar name to Ohio and PA sprint car fans behind the wheel. Rob
Chaney will be at the helm beginning this weekend for the injured Jason
"The Hitman" Martin. Chaney who was the winner of 2 non wing
sprint car races last year at El Dora and a 2 time winner at Fremont
Speedway is excited about his opportunity with the Martin Motorsports
team. Chaney has run Phoenix before when he substituted for an injured
Jack Hudenschild back in 1999. Chaney wound up with a top 15 finish.
"I am really looking forward to getting in the seat." Said
Chaney. "I want to thank Jason and Dan (Martin) for the opportunity
to pilot the Nos Energy Drinks/Mafia Motorsports #36 beginning this
weekend. The team is off to a good start this season and I just want to
keep that momentum up until Jason is ready to get back in the seat. The
biggest challenge will just be working together for the first time but
once we get on the track things will fall into place."
"We're happy to have someone of Rob's caliber in the
car." Said The Hitman, "He has a lot of experience and has
run several of the tracks we are heading to over the next few weeks.
Brian did a great job for us and showed the caliber of the team we have
and we think Rob can keep that momentum going. I am looking forward to
working with Rob and giving him the equipment he needs to run up front
and be a contender."
