BPG RACING/CHAD SINON MOTORSPORTS HEADS TO URC, AND HE'S COMING TO WIN.
Without a doubt, one of the most notable race car sponsors, a key figure
in short track racing and a gentleman with a first class approach, Chad
Sinon announced that he is testing the waters of sprint car racing in
2008. He is coming to URC and, he is coming to win.
As the late night candles were flickering on Thursday, Chad Sinon of
Blue Bell, PA was on the phone with URC standout Chris Coyle of
Wilmington, DE, and the deal is done. The familiar number 4 will carry
the BPG Racing/Chad Sinon Motorsports name and graphics with Chris Coyle
at the wheel when URC opens their 61st season at the Bridgeport Speedway
in April 2008. The twenty-eight year old Chris Coyle is a seven time
feature winner with URC. Three of those wins came in 2007, a year when
twenty different drivers shared the twenty-eight possible victories.
Along with Coyle, the master Kramer Williamson and URC Champion Curt
Michael were also three time winners this season. In the final point
chase, Coyle finished sixth.
There is a story of dedication and determination for Chris Coyle in
2007. Some say he raced on a limited budget, others say he raced on a
shoe string. Many said you won't see him at the next show. As the
cost of auto racing increases faster then gas prices, Coyle found a way
to make it to every race. Even more impressive, was his three feature
wins in URC action this year. Coyle won the opener at the sprawling
five-eighth mile Bridgeport Speedway in April, he won at the hard clay
of Orange County in August and late in the year, Coyle tackled the
high-banks of the Grandview Speedway to win a Thunder on the Hill event.
Three extremely demanding race tacks, each with their own attitude, but
Coyle was up to the challenge. Pretty impressive for a guy who runs his
sprint car operation off a weekly paycheck!
A Warehouse Manager by day, Coyle spends every free hour preparing his
URC sprint car for the weekend. He works hard. Since Chris Coyle's'
billfold is not bulging, he needs to take care of every race car part
he owns. Coyle can race and be successful just by managing his racing
program. Chris is also appreciative of the help he receives, His
sponsors, his friends and his family are there to help him along. But
in today's high cost racing, the drive to work hard for good results is
paying off, well at least for Chris Coyle. So the guy is dedicated
and determined, two character traits that caught the eye of Chad Sinon.
"I want to get into URC sprint car racing and Coyle is my choice of
drivers", said Sinon. He was very impressive with his win at Grandview
last year. Sinon has a good eye for evaluating talented race car
drivers, and his trophy room at home can prove it. In the modified
ranks, the BPG Racing/Chad Sinon Motorsports name has carried may
drivers to victory lane as well as championship podiums at the end of
the year. Duane Howard, Craig VonDohren, Jeff Strunk, Ryan Watt, Mike
Gular, Bobby Trapper are among the stars in the BPG racing stable. Now
Chris Coyle will be part of the team, taking the BPG name to sprint car
racing for the first time ever.
