2006 PSCA Pro Street Champion Steve Paulauskis, is pleased to announce he has entered into an innovative marketing agreement with Tom and Yvonne Nelson of Team Transit Mix Inc. of Bakersfield, CA for the remainder of the 2007 racing season. The WFO Motorsport Cavalier will debut as the Team Transit Mix Cavalier at the upcoming West Coast Hot Rod Association (WCHRA) Team Transit Mix Inc. Spring Nationals at the Auto Club Famoso Raceway in Bakersfield on April 13-15. The Nelson’s intend to use their association with Paulauskis to promote their new plant in Bakersfield and introduce their employees and customers to the sport of drag racing and the ‘Team’ philosophy.

Tom Nelson had this to say about Paulauskis “I have toyed with the idea of getting involved with Steve for quite a while. He and his team are great representatives of a team going out and being successful. Our whole business philosophy is about being a ‘Team’ and the WFO crew is a great example of that. With our new facility in Bakersfield I needed an innovative way to showcase what we do, the WCHRA came along and I had the solution to my two problems solved. I get to partner with Steve and I get to showcase Team Transit Mix on the quickest Pro Street car on the West Coast. Steve is the ideal guy for the job. The big plus for me is signing this deal with Steve before the first WCHRA event at Bakersfield. We are now going to use the event as a customer/employee Appreciation Day with Steve and his team being the focus. We will have a hospitality area for our guests and look forward to making their drag racing experience one to remember. It will be great for my customers and employees to have their own car to cheer for!”

Paulauskis added “I am really looking forward to our marketing partnership with Team Transit Mix. Tom and Yvonne have been successful in their business endeavors just as we have with our racing, I feel honored that they chose me to represent their new venture. Tom’s ‘Team’ philosophy matches well with our race team, I could not have been as successful as I was last year without my crew pulling together as a team. I owe Kelly Bluebaugh with WFO Racing and Machine and the rest of the crew a lot, it was their work ethic that allowed us to take the Pro Street championship in our rookie year. I also look forward to interacting with the Team Transit Mix customers and employees, drag racing is a great family sport, something that is very team oriented and the fit with Tom’s ‘Team’ approach to business is mirrored in drag racing. I look forward to putting the Team Transit Mix Cavalier into the Winner’s Circle and going after the first WCHRA Pro Street Championship.”

The Team Transit Mix Cavalier will be seen at all WCHRA events as well as selected PSCA events, the schedule will also include the 3rd Annual Street Car Super Nationals and at present the team is unsure if they will return to Orlando for the World Streetnationals event.
