Sheppard and Brownell set for Hagarstown.

MATT SHEPPARD & JEFF BROWNELL SET FOR HAGERSTOWN THIS WEEKEND, TAKE A
LOOK AT THE CAR WITH NEW COLORS & NUMBER

LANGHORNE, PA . . . . . .The "new deal" for Matt Sheppard is about
to begin. In fact, it will all get underway on Saturday, March 22nd at
the Hagerstown Speedway with the opening event of the 2008 Advance Auto
Parts Super DIRTcar Series. The newly formed team of Matt Sheppard and
Jeff Brownell invite everyone to visit their website to take a look at
the new car, colors and number that this team will sport in 2008.
Please visit www.Matt-Sheppard.com and take a look under News.

Hagerstown Speedway is a favorite stop for the twenty-five year old
driver out of Waterloo, NY. Back in 2004, at the age of twenty-one,
Sheppard invaded Hagerstown and won not only the small block feature
event but the modified feature as well, making it a two race, same day
sweep. Sheppard and car owner Jeff Brownell enjoy a long time
friendship and their excitement is at an all time high as well. Some
very familiar sponsors will be displayed on the #9s, the new number that
will be associated with this team. BPG/Chad Sinon Motorsports is one
new affiliation with Sheppard and Brownell but a name of long lasting
respect for being associated with winning race teams. Other
sponsorship support for the Finger Lakes Auto Machine powered Bicknell
Chassis modified include Magee Transportation, Seneca Auto Sales &
Service, Bicknell Racing Products and Integra Racing Shocks. Jeff
Brownell will field a two car team with Sheppard behind the wheel as
well as his son, Jeff Brownell Jr.

"The team is coming together with the help of so many including my Dad,
Chad Sinon, Dave Rauscher, Randy Williamson and Scott Keyser . It's
just amazing what can happen in just three or four weeks", commented
Sheppard.

The season did get under in February for Sheppard, driving the Randy
Ross #44 in Florida at the Volusia Speedway. In four starts, Sheppard
rattled off four top ten finishes, starting deep in field in each
feature. "I would have liked to win one more for Randy (Ross) in
Florida, but overall, I think we ended in style. The four top ten
finishes along with eight wins and the New Egypt Championship in 2007,
was just a memorable time of my career," added Sheppard.

Sheppard and Brownell are all set for Hagerstown on Saturday and what
will follow? Weekly stops at the Brewerton, Canandaigua and the
Weedsport Speedways along with a full force assault on the Advance Auto
Parts Super DIRTcar Series..
