Carson Brown comments<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ve\u00a0been fortunate to race with great teams, filled with really smart and driven people, who have prepared me for this moment,\u201d\u00a0Carson Brown stated in the team release.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe O\u2019Reilly Series is a big step, but\u00a0it\u2019s\u00a0the right step and\u00a0I\u2019m\u00a0definitely ready\u00a0for it.\u00a0It\u2019s\u00a0an awesome opportunity and\u00a0I\u2019m\u00a0proud to be doing it with Chevrolet, Jordan Anderson Racing\u00a0Bommarito Autosport\u00a0and Distributor Wire & Cable.\u201d<\/p>\n
This year, Brown is racing in the CARS Tour Late Model Stock division for Lee Pulliam Performance. He\u2019s also racing on ASA STARS National Tour with Anthony Campi Racing where he\u2019s picked up four wins in six races.<\/p>\n
Jordan Anderson comments<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ve watched Carson\u2019s progression for several years, going back to when he was racing dirt late models and then making the transition into asphalt super late models,\u201d Anderson said.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt has been impressive to see how quickly he has adapted everywhere he has gone. Whether it has been\u00a0late\u00a0models, road\u00a0racing\u00a0or ARCA, he has continued to step into new situations, learn quickly and perform at\u00a0a high level.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat stands out to me is that Carson has never appeared overwhelmed by the moment. He carries himself with a level of confidence and maturity that is rare for someone his age, but he also understands that success comes from being prepared and working well with the people around him.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cHe has earned this opportunity through his results and the way he has handled each step of his career. I feel confident that he is ready for this next challenge.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIowa will be another\u00a0step up\u00a0in competition, but\u00a0I believe Carson\u00a0has the talent,\u00a0mindset\u00a0and experience to make the most of it. We are proud that he will make his series debut with our team, and we are grateful to Distributor Wire & Cable,\u00a0Chevrolet\u00a0and RCR for helping bring this opportunity together.\u201d<\/p>\n
