PHILLIPS
& PAYNE ANNOUNCE AMICABLE SPLIT...
(December
6, 2011) In an announcement made today, longtime
teammates Terry Phillips and Jeremy Payne have amicably decided
to part ways prior to the start of the 2012 racing season.
Both drivers stated that it was just "time to move on
and go separate ways" and there are no hard feelings
on either side. Terry is busy at the shop putting together
his new Team Zero by Bloomquist cars that he plans to debut
during the upcoming 'Wild West Shootout' at the USA Raceway
in Tucson, Arizona on January 14-22.
Jeremy, on the other hand, will start his 2012 campaign from
January 1-7 in Australia racing Late Models in four separate
R2C Competition Filters Pro Dirt Series events. When he returns
stateside, Jeremy will focus primarily on his own Open Wheel
Modified program while trying to get something put together
to run some Dirt Late Models as well. A new website is also
in the works for Jeremy and will launch soon at www.jeremy-payne.com.
Jeremy would like to thank Terry and everyone at Terry Phillips
Racing for giving him the opportunity to race with a great
team over the past several years. He would also like to thank
Andy and Carol Kuntz from Andy's Frozen Custard for all of
their support and dedication!
