OREGON, WI (Tuesday, June 30, 2009) - Last month, Chris Wimmer picked up a huge win at Iowa Speedway when he captured his first American Speed Association Midwest Tour win. 45 days later, he passed the 2009 Daytona 500 champion to win The Swiss Colony All-Star Challenge at Madison International Speedway.

"This is just amazing, just to get the chance to race with Matt Kenseth and Tony Stewart and to pass Kenseth for the win is just a neat deal," a smiling Wimmer stated in victory lane after passing Kenseth with 11 laps to go in the 100-lap feature event. "My car was good and I thought I was a little bit better than Matt and I was just waiting, biding my time to get by him and finally got that opportunity and it happened."
