ANDERSON BETS ON RED IN VEGAS

andersonIf there has been one consistent for the KB Racing team in 2013, it has been in change. The Summit Racing team has changed cars multiple times this season, each time hoping for better performance. Thus far, the results haven't been up to their usual high standards.

This weekend they will change once again.

When Jason Line crashed his silver Summit Racing Chevrolet Camaro during a test session in Rockingham, NC, the team made the decision to put Line in Greg Anderson's white Camaro and Anderson would return to the red Camaro he ran earlier in the season.

With Line third in the championship points and only 50 points out of first place, making the move made sense to Anderson.

"We've had a lot of turmoil and shake-ups since the last race, but if you look back, most times when the KB Racing team has done a swap-a-roo it's worked out well for us," said Anderson, who made history with the red Chevrolet Camaro when he drove it to victory in its Englishtown debut. It was the first Pro Stock win for a Camaro in over a decade and the 100th win for KB Racing.

"We haven't run the red Summit Racing Camaro since earlier this year in Phoenix, but Buddy Perkinson has been driving the blue version of this same car lately and will do so again this weekend, and we've been able to learn a lot. The cars ran very well in testing, and to be honest, this adds a certain level of excitement for us. It's a neat opportunity, and we think it's going to rejuvenate us, give us new life and renew our desire to show everyone that we aren't a one-trick pony team. We have grit and fortitude, and we believe that we can recover from this mishap and actually turn it into an opportunity."
