NEWS from F1 BOSTON
For Immediate Release Information Contact: Laura Baker January, 2005 781-228-2108 Championship Winning PTG Racing Signs RJ Valentine for 2005 Grand-Am Rolex Series Winchester, VA – December 7, 2004 Performance Technology Group (PTG), the factory BMW racing team and 2004 Grand-American GT-class champion, has signed endurance racing legend RJ Valentine to contest the 2005 Rolex Sports Car Series in a BMW M3. The team will combine strength with strength by adding Valentine to its potent driver’s lineup, as it combines the team’s celebrated history and mechanical innovation with RJ’s years of experience and rapid pace at North America’s best circuits. Valentine, a Boston-based business leader and accomplished road racer, is fresh off of a highly successful 2004 racing season, as he and teammates Chris Gleason and Ian James battled the PTG BMW’s to 3rd place in the GT class driver’s championship. Teaming with Valentine in the 2005-spec M3 will be sportscar star Kelly Collins, a former Corvette works driver and winner of the 12 Hours of Sebring, and the Rolex 24 Hours of Daytona. “I’ve known and raced against [PTG Team Principal] Tom Milner for ten years, and having the opportunity to race for his team is incredible,” said Valentine. “He is a consummate pro, and his top priority is to win – whether in business or in racing, that’s the kind of attitude I seek out in people. I thought he was joking when he approached me about running the season with him, but I’m thankful for the opportunity and looking forward to the first day of testing at Daytona.” BMW and its brand attributes mirror the qualities that Valentine instills in all of his businesses. -
