Posted (03/15/2004) - TheRaceSite.com Racing's Terry Borcheller continues his busy schedule this weekend. He wil lbe driving the ACEMCO Motorsports Saleen in the ALMS Sebring 12 hours. Terry has a very good chance of winning the Sebring 12 hours overall. Along with his ROLEX 24 of Daytona, this could set him up for the World Endurance Trifexta. Borcheller's returns to the American Le Mans Series, with hopes of recapturing his GTS crown. He will be driving the ACEMCO Motorsports Saleen S7R for team owner Jeff Giangrande. Borcheller, who recently moved to Gainesville, Ga., will share driving duty with Johnny Mowlem, and David Brabham. Borcheller knows how to score in a Saleen. From 1998 to 2001, he won three professional driver championships and 17 races in Saleens. He will be on familiar ground in the ALMS, where he won the 2001 GTS championship in a Saleen S7R. The ACEMCO program will also reunite Borcheller with Pirelli, which has provided high-performance tires and worked closely with him since 2000. "It's really an honor to be involved with a businessman / team owner such as Jeff Giangrande. I am very impressed with his direction and leadership," Borcheller said. "You can judge someone's character pretty quickly by what they believe or some of the things they say, and his character has been inspirational to me. "I had the unique opportunity to see his business operation - it functions unbelievably! A lot of the same successful principles he's implemented in his business, he's putting in place in the racing team. I hope it has the same results, which would be to be at the top level of competition. It's a pretty high standard, but he's done it in business and it would be great if he could do it in racing." Terry will be back with TheRaceSite.com Racing in the SpeedSource Porsche at round 2 at Homestead of the Grand-Am Cup at the end of March. TheRaceSite.com's title defending campaign in the Grand-Am Cup GS class is a reality due to the amazing support from HRPworld.com, HAWK Brake, Kempthorn Auto Mall, SpeedSource, TheRaceMarket.com, K&N Filters, Infinity2, Bob Bondurant Driving Schools, North Jersey Dermatology Center, Red Line Oil, 9 Magazine & Grassroots Motorsports Magazine |
