Press Releases

(August 2, 2004) - Team Barking Chirp, "The Best Damn Team Without a Car," offended race fans in two countries, while recieving only minor injuries during their Michigan 400 Trip.

Team Members The Captain, Jeff Dub - Team Therapist, Colonel and the Director of Track Relations, and Bob "Four-Finger" Hengel - Director of Vendor Relations and Web Presence had a true Canadian experience on Saturday evening, loosing lots more than a few thousand dollars at Casino Windsor.

TBC Racing spent the better part of the day on Sunday in the IRL pits, getting a first-hand look at the technology and craft that is put into every Indy Car. "The effort these teams put into each car closly resembles the effort TBC puts into each adventure, so I feel a very close bond to each team," remarked Jeff Dub - Team Therapist, Colonel and Director of Track Relations. "I was just wondering where they stashed the kegs," added Johnny Reno.

Michigan International Raceway is the heart of the Irish Hills, another section of the great USA that TBC Racing has left its mark on.

PERSONNEL ANNOUNCEMENTS:
" Because of his dedication, Dub has been promoted to Director of Solicitations.
" Because of his lack of dedication, Alex Costanzo, ex-Director of Rememberances has been black-flagged from the team.
" Michael Mancuso, Klein Tools Aerobatics wizard, has been named TBC Racing Special Director of Flight Operations. Mancuso's show is a "must see" and defies the laws of physics and gravity.

UPCOMING TBC RACING EVENTS INCLUDE:
Weekend of August 8th - "Indy Trifecta" Brickyard 400 Trip. Plan to join The Captain and Four on the inaugural "INDY TRIFECTA" trip to Indianapolis for the Brickyard 400. The goal this year is for the Captain to piss himself and offend more people than at the US Grand Prix.
