Jimmy Moves to North Carolina
High Point, NC, July1, 2009: Zip Motorsports and DB Racing Partner up for an Assault on the remaining PASS South Schedule

The idea of teaming with Dave Blaney and his son, Ryan, had been discussed several times in the past few months but nothing had ever come of it. Recently, Jim Jr., Jimmy’s dad, and Dave met at the DB Racing shop in Salisbury, NC and started looking deeper at the idea of the two teams combining. It simply was too good of an opportunity to pass up. After all, both Zip Motorsports and D B Racing were having successful seasons running their respective series.

The first week in July, Jimmy packed up the racecars and his bags and moved south, to the heart of the asphalt racing world. “To make a living driving racecars, the move south had to be done sooner or later and, with this awesome opportunity at hand, we would be crazy not to take it,” stated Jimmy. “Our team was running well and I was having a lot of fun, but being in Ohio kept us distanced from the center of the racing world. Dave has always been the guy I looked up to in racing and now, having the chance to work with him on a daily basis, that’s awesome.”

The two car team will have Robbie Hamke heading the operation for both cars, and 24 year old Matt Goslant, who has been a both a crew chief and crew member on many NASCAR Nationwide and NASCAR Camping World East series teams, takes over as the  main wrench on Jimmy’s car. Add to the equation the two other members of Ryan’s crew and it should make for an exciting partnership.

Jimmy added, “Racing is your life down here so I am really enjoying it. The hot weather and some time on the lake don’t hurt either.”
