Press Release

Helberg Motorsports Announcement:

April 1, 2005 With the onset of her debut race April 2nd, Helberg Motorsports’ 17 year old Jessica Helberg sat down and shared her career goals and season plans for 2005.

This Saturday, April 2nd, Jessica Helberg of Helberg Motorsports will make her season debut at Altamont Raceway and Arena in the beautiful burgundy car number 4, a 700+ hp wingless Asphalt Sprint Car competing in the California Asphalt Sprint Car Association (CASA) series season.

 

Altamont will offer Helberg her first opportunity to compete alongside other CASA drivers in the chance to win a 50-lap feature main event on its 'fastest half-mile in the west' oval.  Helberg plans to aggressively compete for “Rookie of the Year” this first year by attending  all 17 CASA series events to be held in 2005.

 

The Helberg Motorsports team conducted testing and practice during the off-season and are confident that both the car and Jessica will perform exceptionally well as she showcases her talent Saturday night under the lights at Altamont.

 

After a successful four year run in dirt Outlaw Sprint Karts her team decided to propel her professional driving career forward by acquiring a remarkably built Consani Racing Sprint Car.  Shortly after her switch from dirt to asphalt Jessica shared, "My goal is to become a professional race driver and by competing in both a faster and more challenging series, I'll be among some of the best drivers in the country and will definitely learn more that way.”  Young Jessica will be one of very few female Asphalt Sprint Car drivers in the series and is expected to be competitive despite her short time in the division.

 

2005 will see the Helberg Motorsports team travel all over. In addition to the lightning-fast, half-mile Altamont Raceway & Arena, they will also compete at the high-banks of Ukiah Speedway, the ultra-fast quarter-mile bullring of Champion Speedway in Carson City , Nevada and at Madera Speedway’s paved third-mile oval track. About mid-season, Helberg Motorsports plans to take their annual trip to Knoxville , Iowa to compete with the countries very best during the Knoxville Nationals.

 

Sponsors, and motorsports fans are invited to see it live at Altamont Raceway and Arena, but if you can't make the green flag this weekend, you can catch Jessica on the new “Altamont Speed Week” weekly television show on Comcast SportsNet West.  There you will see  Altamont racing action every Sunday morning at 9:30 am and replays several times a week.

This is one young lady who is on the move and is someone you should keep your eyes on in 2005!
