LOVELAND, Ohio — Hoffman Auto Racing, the winningest team in the history of the USAC National Sprint Car Series with eight championships and 72 victories, has hired two-time defending USAC National Midget Series champion Jerry Coons, Jr. to drive its No. 69 sprint car on dirt and pavement in 2008.
Coons won three USAC events for HAR in 2007 and finished ninth in the standings despite running only in the dirt-track events.
“I am looking forward to returning in 2008 and I am very excited to run for a sprint-car championship both for myself and for the Hoffman Team,” Coons said.
Primary sponsorship will continue from Kroger and Tide, with associate sponsorship from   Mopar, Bounty and Pringles.
