“I’m pumped up with finalizing a deal to compete weekly at the Knoxville Raceway in 2013,” he said.
The team Ian will be competing for will be a new team as sprint car new comer, Bret Nehring, of Nehring Construction will field a machine for Madsen, while long time mechanic, Matt Barbara, will run the team and act as the manager.
The Kustom Concrete Pumping Racing (KCP Racing) No. 18 team will be based out of Knoxville, IA, will run KPC Chassis with Rider Racing Engines supplying the power, and Factory Kahne Shocks providing the grip. Initial support will also come from Nehring Construction as well as Kustom Concrete Pumping.
The initial plans have the KCP Racing team competing weekly at the Knoxville Raceway ,in the 410 ranks, aiming for the track championship, as well as running select World of Outlaw shows in the surrounding areas, as well as the Knoxville Nationals in August.
“The Australian season has been a good one thus far, and I’m hoping it carries over in the US,” Madsen continued. “We have a solid group of guys, and I’m hoping we can get Bret (Nehring) some strong results during his first year in the sport.”
Ian and his KCP Racing team would like to thank Nehring Construction, Greenland Homes of Iowa, Kustom Concrete Pumping Inc., Klien Electric, Royal Flooring, Quality Traffic Control, Stepping Stone Genetics, JRS Excavating, Rider Racing Engines, Kent Performance Center, Brown and Miller Racing Solutions, Smith Precision Products, Moose Blocks, Speedway Motors, Watson’s Express Transport, and Factory Kahne for their support.
