Winston-Salem, N.C. (July 9, 2014) – Ronnie Bassett Jr. and the Bassett Racing No.
04 Butler Trailer Manufacturing/Roush Yates Performance team look to bounce back
at New Hampshire Motor Speedway (NHMS) this weekend from a disappointing finish
due to a brake issue, three weeks ago at Langley Speedway in the NASCAR K&N Pro
Series East. The Granite State 100 from NHMS will mark the second time Bassett
Jr. will make a start at the famed 1.05-mile speedway, with his first career start
resulting in a 10th-place finish.
* Consistency In the past six NASCAR K&N Pro Series East races, Ronnie Bassett
Jr. has three top-five finishes and five top-10 finishes dating all the way back
to Greenville Pickens Speedway, where he recorded a season-best result of second.
* Get to the Points Bassett Jr. of Winston-Salem, North Carolina fell from the 8th
position to the 10th position in the NASCAR K&N Pro Series East driver point standings
after a brake failure and a 20th-place finish at Langley Speedway. Bassett Jr. has
three top-five finishes, and six top-ten finishes in 11 career starts in the NASCAR
K&N Pro Series East.
