VANCOUVER, Canada (February 23, 2012) – Following a strong finish at the Rolex 24 at Daytona, the Bullet Racing team kicks off our Pacific Northwest region event calendar at our home track, The Ridge Motorsports Park, on March 16-18, 2012. Bullet Racing will bring their Daytona #22 and #33 Porsche GT3 Cup cars to the inaugural event of the Ridge Racing School, our regional driver development affiliate.

“This is an incredibly exciting time for motorsports in the Pacific Northwest”, said team owner Steve Paquette. “For the first time in more than a generation we have an all new motorsports park, and with this new venue a huge opportunity for drivers of all skill levels to develop their skills, whether you’re a diamond in the rough beginner or a seasoned professional. We are very excited to kick off the regional racing season at this Ridge Racing School event”.

We are also pleased announce that Matt Monson of Guard Transmission will be making the trip from Colorado to join us at this event. Matt will be on hand to apply his expertise assisting the team in optimizing the race car transmission performance at The Ridge. He will also be available to consult about Guard Transmission products and services.

Bullet Racing is looking forward to building on our success at Daytona where the team finished 20th in the strongest GT field ever assembled. “Considering that virtually every top driver and team in the world was racing at Daytona for this special 50th anniversary Rolex 24, to say that on that day we were the 20th best GT team in the world seems reasonable. I am extremely proud of the whole team and what we accomplished together, and grateful to have had the opportunity to be a part of that”, said team driver Randy Blaylock. “I can’t wait to bring the Daytona cars to the Ridge Racing School event to begin testing and to share the excitement, I hear we may have a passenger seat in the cars. I’m so ready to start laying the groundwork for a successful 2012 racing season”.

We will have a strong contingent of Bullet Racing’s fulltime racing crew on hand to answer any preparation and technical questions aspiring racers and crew may have.

Team drivers Brett Van Blankers, Joe White and Randy Blaylock will be in attendance to do some testing of the team GT3 Cup cars, as well as shake down runs of a new ICSCC ST class Porsche Cayman currently under development by Bullet Racing.

VANCOUVER, Canada (January 18, 2012) -- Bullet Racing announced its final driver lineup in the 50th anniversary edition of the “Rolex 24 At Daytona”. This is Bullet Racing’s 5th consecutive entry into this prestigious race.

“I am pleased to announce today that we have completed our driver lineup with the addition of Kevin Roush. Kevin is one of the standout Porsche GT3 Cup drivers competing today “says Team Principal Steve Paquette. Kevin has competed 5 previous times at the Rolex 24, all of them in a Porsche GT3 Cup, with his best finish being 5th place. In another Porsche Kevin led the 2009 Rolex 24 for 106 laps up until a broken axel snatched away what was looking like a win in the GT Class.

Kevin joins Canadian Darryl O’Young, who is currently a top driver in the WTCC (World Touring Car Championship) Canadian Brett Van Blankers, a past Indy Pro Driver, and Bullet Racing team drivers Randy Blaylock and Joe White from Washington State. Randy is a very successful driver in the Pacific Northwest and most recently was the lead driver along with Joe White in Bullet Racing’s Porsche’s overall victory in the Cascade 8 hours at Portland.

It’s my 3rd year driving for Steve Paquette and Bullet Racing at the 24 hours of Daytona, and I'm feeling the most confident this year at the 50th anniversary of the race. Bullet has gained vast experience at Daytona over the years and the car and team are very well prepared. We have a solid crew and a strong driver line up that have excellent synergy working together, so we just need to stay focused on avoiding mistakes and I'm sure the results can come. I'm really looking forward to the race!" says Darryl O’Young

"This being The 50th Anniversary Rolex 24 is a huge deal for everyone in motor racing , as is apparent in the strength and depth in the field and I am stoked to be a part of Bullet's design to excel amongst many of The World's best GT programs. They started preparing our Porsche long ago and with all the pieces in place and a little luck I think we'll have a strong effort.” says Kevin Roush.

Brett Van Blanker says “It’s been a few years since I have raced IndyCar and to jump back in at this level in what probably is the most important sports car race in North America has me absolutely thrilled, the Bullet Racing Team as made me feel comfortable from the very start and I am confident that with a little luck we will be a strong team in this years race.”

"I have never seen such a high interest level before. Everything is up, the crowds at the test, the media coverage, the chatter on all of the social media. The pedigree of the entry list is unprecedented, and the feel in the garage area is just electric. The race is going to be incredible, whomever comes out on top can truly feel like they have beaten the best the world has to offer at this point in history" says Randy Blaylock

“2011 was a stellar year for me racing a Porsche GT3 Cup at numerous tracks all around North America with the support of Bullet Racing” says Joe White. “Now to be able to compete at this the 50th running of the Rolex 24 at Daytona with the team I have worked so closely all year long with is just amazing.”

“I am thrilled to be able to bring such a strong effort to the 50th Rolex 24 at Daytona and it would not
be possible without the support from our partners at The Ridge Motorsports Park (www.ridgemotorsportspark.com) Our primary drive train sponsor Guard Transmission (www.guardtransmission.com) has supplied us with what I believe are the parts to succeed in this grueling race” says Steve Paquette

VANCOUVER, Canada (November 23, 2011)—Bullet Racing announced today the formation of a strategic partnership with The Ridge Motorsports Park, the newest motorsports park in North America.

“This new partnership with The Ridge provides Bullet Racing with a fantastic opportunity to grow our Racing Driver Development Program, and to promote the Porsche brand. I have driven at every road circuit in North America, and frankly the new circuit at The Ridge is as good as any of them”, said Bullet Racing team principle Steve Paquette. “The layout of The Ridge is unlike any other circuit in the Pacific Northwest. Most professional race drivers agree that being able to drive a race car at the limit in high speed turns is what separates the good from the great. The Ridge has these types of turns, as well as other qualities that will provide a venue and opportunity for a whole new step in the development of our team drivers and clients.”

The Ridge Motorsports Park co-founder Joe Manke said, “From the beginning of this project, we set out to design a road racing course that incorporates design features that professional race car drivers consider essential to be considered a legitimate racing circuit, while at the same time also being suitable to club racers and car club lappers. Having a professional Porsche racing team partner with The Ridge for their home track confirms that we have met our objective. We are extremely excited to have Bullet Racing as a partner, and are looking forward to joining the team at Daytona for this year’s 50th anniversary Rolex 24 hour race.”

Bullet Racing will be conducting several track days at The Ridge Motorsports Park in 2012 for its VIP clients, as well as team testing and race car development days.
