Matt has gone through our driver development program and he has shown the drive that it takes to overcome adversity and find himself behind the wheel to take the green flag.”
“PEAK is proud to support grassroots racers who continue to show the determination and passion that Matt has shown in his journey towards his dream. Matt’s hard work and the community supporting him allowed us to see what Matt had to offer, resulting in his invitation to our three day PEAK Stock Car Dreams test at Charlotte Motor Speedway last month. His involvement in that program enabled folks from PEAK and Michael Waltrip Racing to experience the passion that Matt has for the sport and gave us confidence that helping Matt continue his dream was something that PEAK wanted to be part of. We wish Matt the best in his next race at Hickory” said Bryan Emrich, Senior Vice President of Marketing for Peak Anti-Freeze and Motor Oil.
