(Mooresville, NC – April 14, 2014) In preparation for the International Motorsports Hall of Fame 200 at Talladega Superspeedway, Justin Allison and Team BCR will attend the open test on April 16 and 17 in the #88 Havacosales.com Ford Fusion powered by RoushYates Engines.
The ARCA Racing Series presented by Menards open test at Talladega will give the rookie driver a chance to gain valuable superspeedway experience, and learn the ins and outs of the track before he makes his Talladega debut. Allison made his Daytona debut in February with Team BCR where he was involved in the multiple car incident early in the race while running in the 8th position.
“Talladega is high on my list to have a good outing this season,” says 21-year-old driver, Justin Allison. “When I tested with Team BCR at Daytona last December, we were 3rd overall on the speed charts. We’re bringing back the same car we had at Daytona, completely redone. Howard (Bixman) and the crew put a lot of effort into this superspeedway program and I’m looking forward to the test. I would like to thank Havacosales.com, Rush Racing Products and all our partners that have supported us.”
“Justin has shown us he has a tremendous amount of talent,” commented Crew Chief, Howard Bixman. “Daytona was disappointing for the #88 team, but Justin has adapted very well with our program. With that being said, we’re all looking forward to Talladega. The entire Allison family is very excited as well that Justin is carrying on the Allison Legacy at Talladega.”
The International Motorsports Hall of Fame 200 is set to take place on Saturday, May 3 at 10am. The race will be broadcasted live on Fox Sports 1.
