Team ASE was looking forward to joining defending NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series champion Ted Musgrave at Ultra Motorsports for the upcoming 2006 season, but Ultra Motorsports Team owner Jim Smith surprised everyone by closing its doors just weeks before the start of the season.

“As one of the original sponsors of the NCTS series, Team ASE is excited to partner with Germain Racing, who clearly demonstrated their intent to win during the 2005 Season, along with the opportunity to stay with Ted Musgrave,” said Ron Weiner, ASE president. “Ted represents the best ideals of NASCAR, ASE and Germain Motor Company and we’re proud to have the opportunity for him to carry the ASE banner for 2006.

For Bob, Steve and Rick Germain to have a great organization like Team ASE on board with the Germain Racing family is an exciting opportunity to begin the 2006 season.

“Our dealerships have had a long standing relationship with ASE, so it’s very exciting to have them become a sponsor of the Germain Racing Team,” said Bob Germain. “We look forward to building a long term relationship.”

Snap-on Tools will also join Team ASE on the No. 9 Team ASE/Germain Toyota Tundra as an associate sponsor. The No. 30 Germain Motor Co. Toyota Tundra of Todd Bodine will also carry both the Team ASE logo and Snap-On logos, which will be displayed on the side of Bodines’ Tundra.

“It’s not only going to be an exciting season for us here at Germain Racing, but also for TEAM ASE and its 400,000 plus automotive professionals that hold ASE certification,” said the GM for Germain Racing, Mike Hillman, Sr. “I feel it’s going to be a great relationship between Germain Racing and Team ASE. Being competitive on the race track is as important to Team ASE as it is for us at Germain Racing. We look forward to great season with Team ASE.”

Germain Racing debuted in the NCTS at Richmond in 2004. Germain racing is affiliated with Germain Motor Company owned and operated by the Germain brothers – Bob, Steve and Rick Germain. The Germain Motor Company collectively owns 15 dealerships, representing 12 different manufacturers in Columbus, OH, Naples, FL, Sarasota, FL, and Bentonville, AR. In the past, the Germain Motor Company has sponsored cars in the Goody’s Dash Series, ARCA Series, NASCAR Busch Series, NASCAR Nextel Cup Series as well as trucks in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series.

Several governors across the country have declared April as Car Care Month in their respective states, urging their residents to be car care aware and perform the service necessary to ensure their vehicles are operating in a safe, efficient and clean manner.
The following governors have issued official state proclamations that April is Car Care Month: Gov. Robert Bentley of Alabama, Gov. John Hickenlooper of Colorado, Gov. Pat Quinn of Illinois, Gov. Rick Snyder of Michigan, Gov. Susana Martinez of New Mexico, Gov. John A. Kitzhaber, M.D. of Oregon, Gov. Nikki R. Haley of South Carolina, Gov. Bill Haslam of Tennessee, Gov. Peter Shumlin of Vermont and Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin of West Virginia.
“We want to thank these governors for officially proclaiming April as Car Care Month,” said Rich White, executive director, Car Care Council. “Car Care Month provides a unique opportunity for the auto care industry and the government to educate car owners on the importance of proper vehicle care. Motor vehicle safety continues to be a major focus for state legislatures and regulatory agencies across the country, so we commend each of the governors for making these important proclamations.”
Spring is the perfect time for motorists to make sure their vehicles are running reliably after a rough winter and before the summer driving season begins. Many independent repair shops and community organizations throughout the country will conduct car care events during April. These events have revealed that three out of four vehicles inspected are in need of some type of maintenance or repair.
The non-profit Car Care Council offers many free tools on its website to help consumers drive smart, save money and be more environmentally friendly, including the popular 60-page Car Care Guide and a custom service schedule and email reminder service.
“By following a service schedule and performing preventative vehicle maintenance, motorists can ensure that their vehicles are safe and dependable. Plus, auto care can help save money in many ways, including reducing fuel consumption and extending vehicle life,” continued White. “We encourage all car owners across the country to get their vehicles inspected this April.”
