“I am very excited to get home and try to end the 2013 year on a high note, and kick 2014 off strong again,” Madsen said.

 

Utilizing Eagle Chassis, Factory Kahne Shocks, and Inglis Engines, Madsen and his team will kick their season off with the World Series Sprint Cars, and see how that plays out.

 

Aside from competing with the WSS, they will hit all of the big Australian shows as well as fill their schedule in with races in the surrounding areas.

 

Spinning wrenches for Madsen, and overseeing the operations of the team is veteran mechanic, Dave Sharman.

 

“I am every excited to work with Dave Sharman and this entire team,” Madsen said. “Dave has an amazing work ethic, and has a ton of experience at all of the tracks we will be at, and I think we will have a very successful season together.”

 

None of this would be possible without a ton of support, and Madsen would like to thank Eagle Motorsports, Dave and Lorraine Horrell of  East Coast Logistics, Watson’s Express Transport, Lucas Oil , and Factory Kahne Shocks for everything they will be doing for this team.

 

2013 BY THE NUMBERS: Starts-63, Wins-12, Top-5’s- 26, Top 10’s-36

 

ON TAP: Madsen will be aboard his KCP Racing No. 18 machine this Saturday night at the Eldora Speedway as he takes on the All Star Circuit of Champions!
