GoBowling.com to Adorn Hood of No. 44 Ford Fusion
After a wreck-filled race in Talladega, Brian Scott and the No. 44 GoBowling.com team are powering through to a track familiar to Scott in the Sprint Cup Series, Kansas Speedway. Scott has experience racing at the 1.5-mile track in the Sprint Cup Series, XFINITY Series and Camping World Truck Series and is looking forward to racing with a new partner in GoBowling.com, who is also the race sponsor for this weekend’s GoBowling.com 400.
Scott most recently raced in Kansas in the Sprint Cup Series last fall, finishing a career-high 12th. Scott tied that career-high finish this year at Auto Club Speedway in March. In seven starts at Kansas Speedway in the XFINITY Series, Scott has one Top-10 finish and two Top-15 finishes. In the Camping World Truck Series, Scott has one Top-Five finish (third in 2009) and two Top-15 finishes.
GoBowling.com partners with Richard Petty Motorsports and the No. 44 in conjunction with their race partnership this weekend at Kansas Speedway. Scott will be answering fans questions at the Ford Display on Saturday before Saturday’s night race, in addition to meeting with fans at the GoBowling.com display in the midway.

“I think Kansas is turning into one of the best racetracks we go to. It has a lot of speed, but the progressive banking is really serving its purpose. We’ve seen the last couple of races there where you can run a multitude of lines, and I think it’s been great. It’s been great for the racing, and it’s been great from my perspective as a driver to move around, have opportunities to pass and not get stuck in one groove. We’re still working hard to get our hands around this new aero package. We’ve had weekends where I think we’ve really hit it, and weekends where we have missed it. I’m looking forward to going back to night racing this weekend at an intermediate track and keeping our No. 44 GoBowling.com Ford Fusion at the front.”
