Dixie Chopper Lawn Mowers and Lucas Oil Products back on board for 2009!
By Buzz Motorsports Mackinaw, Illinois (Thursday April 9,2009): The winning combination of Buzz Motorsports, Dixie Chopper Lawn Mowers and Lucas Oil Products will continue to be seen on the short tracks of the midwest for yet another season!
“What a great opportunity for Dixie Chopper to continue to expand their motorsports program into the upper midwest.” Stated a very happy Jamie Neville, Car Owner for Buzz Motorsports. The ASA Midwest Tour that our team will be competing in this season, has a great fan base that covers a wide demographic and will give us unlimited potential to show off the great benefits of owning a Dixie Chopper Lawnmower.” The elder Neville added. "Lucas Oil has been synonomous with racing for many years. The opportunity to use and promote their quality lubricants is a great priviledge in itself for our team as well!"
“Dixie Chopper and myself are the perfect match. Not only do I use their mowers exclusively in my business, Nick’s Quality Lawn Care, but I also get to promote their product everywhere we race.” Stated the teams' 21-year-old driver Nick Neville. “The “Fastest mower in the world” together with a pretty fast race car will be hard to beat! I think the success we have had the past two seasons proved to the Dixie Chopper folks that we have a solid team that they can be proud to support.” Neville added.
"We began testing and using Lucas Oil Products about two seasons ago, and the results are speaking for themselves!" Stated 23 year old Derek Neville as he talked about his sponsor. "I used to think "motor oil was just motor oil" but now I know better. The rear-end and transmission temps are drastically reduced and engine horsepower is up significantly! I am proud to carry the Lucas colors on the my #33 ASA MWT car." Derek added.
In 1981 Art Evans made the first Dixie Chopper. Little did anyone know that he would lead the way to revolutionizing the entire lawn and garden industry. Dixie Choppers are known for their performance, productivity and reliability. Still family owned and operated, near Greencastle, Indiana. Dixie Chopper takes great pride in producing the best mid-mount, zero turning mowers in the industry. Through the years manufacturing processes and procedures have changed, however, our corporate values have remained constant. One driving value we have is to produce a mower that has many years of useable life left after it is paid for. Dixie Chopper may not be the first mower you have ever purchased, but chances are it will be the last. Much thought and consideration goes into the making of the Dixie Chopper. We work hard to get the maximum life from belts, component parts and many other things to extend the life of the Dixie Chopper.
Lucas Oil Products was founded by Forrest Lucas and his wife Charlotte in 1989 with the simple philosophy of producing only the best line of lubricants and additives available anywhere.
Through innovative product research and development, along with aggressive marketing programs, Lucas has established itself as a top selling additive line in the American truck stop industry.
Lucas is also one of the fastest growing additive lines in the consumer automotive industry as well as the industrial and agricultural markets. A premium line of oils, greases and problem solving additives has helped to firmly establish Lucas as a prominent figure in this marketplace.
President Forrest Lucas sums it up, "Our forte' is to make better products for industries and specialty situations that are not having their needs completely satisfied by other oil products and, believe me, the major oil companies have left a lot of weak spots.
We have an excellent staff and a world of technology which we have gained through years of research. Together we have done a great deal in a short period of time and we intend to do a lot more."
Lucas has long been directly involved in the American racing industry through multiple vehicle sponsorships and racing event promotions, at all levels. Seeing a need for better lubricants in this industry, the Lucas people went to work again.
The end result being a line of high performance engine oils and gear oils that is second-to-none in the racing industry. Lucas racing products have proven themselves on NASCAR, NHRA, IHRA, ASA MWT, USHRA and ATPA tracks across the country.
The Lucas success story has been built upon hard work, an unparalleled line of premium products and an unwavering commitment to customer satisfaction. This single formula for success will continue to guide Lucas Oil Products as it grows in the years to come.
For the 2009 racing season, Nick Neville will carry the colors of Dixie Chopper Lawn Mowers on the side of his #32 Buzz Motorsports Chevrolet Impala. Additional support comes from; Lucas Oil Products, Ben E. Neville Roll-Off and Trucking Service, Nick's Quality Lawn Care, M.P.H. Promotions, and of course Buzz Motorsports.
Derek Neville will steer his #33 Chevrolet Impala with primary sponsorship from Lucas Oil Products as well as Ben E. Neville Roll-Off and Trucking Service, Neville Land Improvement, Dixie Chopper Lawn Mowers, M.P.H. Promotions, and Buzz Motorsports.
