Milwaukee, WI – September 2, 2008 – Paul Davis Restoration and Remodeling of Southeast Wisconsin owner Dan Druml announced today that his company sponsored racing team Paul Davis Restoration/ALS Ford has placed 7th in the NASCAR Camping World East series race at the Mansfield Motorsports Speedway in Mansfield, OH on Aug. 23 and also placed 5th at the American Speed Association’s (ASA) Wisconsin All-Star 100 Governors Cup 150 in West Allis, WI on Aug. 24. The team recently finished 5th at the Strutmasters.com 150, which was presented by General Dollar at Music City Motorplex, Tennessee State Fairgrounds in July. According to Druml, his company will sponsor the Wisconsin-based team of driver Derek Thorn and the Paul Davis Restoration/ALS Ford Fusion in the NASCAR Camping World Series East and other racing events this year.
Upcoming races for the Paul Davis Restoration/ALS Ford this year include the NASCAR Camping World Series at the New Hampshire Motor Speedway in Loudon, New Hampshire on September 12; the Dover International Speedway in Dover, Delaware on September 19, and the NASCAR Camping World Series season finale at the Stafford Motor Speedway in Stafford Connecticut on September 28.
The team is owned by Shawn Keep and managed by Scott Pfeiffer who is also the founder of “Racin’ for a Cure”, a Sun Prairie, WI -based non-profit organization that raises funds for Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), a degenerative disease often referred to as “Lou Gehrig’s Disease”.
“We are very proud of Scott and Derek and their continued success in NASCAR, ASA and other racing circuits. The team continues to get stronger as the year progresses as our recent success indicates. Derek is an exceptional young driver who is being supported by a great team assembled by Scott. These combined factors are the reason we are having great success. Everyone has rallied around Scott and the cause. It is truly a team effort to raise awareness and money for ALS and to achieve great success on and off the track. Our core values include supporting Scott for his work on behalf of finding a cure for ALS and many additional causes through the Paul Davis Charitable Foundation,” said Druml.
In summary, during a successful 2007 race season, Pfeiffer was diagnosed with ALS. He was devastated and decided to put together a business plan to raise awareness and funds for ALS research. Without start up money, he turned to his longtime friend and successful Wisconsin businessman Shawn Keep. Keep decided to support the NASCAR race team and “Racin’ for a Cure” in order to help raise awareness about ALS.
