2020) – Once again joining the World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series, St.
Helena, California’s Rico Abreu made the trip from his Indiana-based,
Midwest headquarters to the highbanks of Federated Auto Parts Raceway at
I-55 during the recent weekend, entering back-to-back nights with the
Greatest Show On Dirt in search of another $20,000 top prize. Although
Abreu’s results were short of the podium, the two-time Ironman 55
champion put on a hard-fought performance on Saturday to finish 13th
after starting from row ten.Adding a little drama to his
Saturday night result, Abreu, driver of the Rico Abreu/Curb Agajanian
Racing/Abreu Vineyards/Curb Records/Lucas Oil/Priority Aviation/Self
Made Racing/Salty’s BBQ/ShopRico.com/No. 24 sprint car, suffered from a
flat tire during his rally from 19th to 13th and was forced to restart
at the tail of the field. Abreu was racing in the 11th position when the
flat tire occurred.Abreu opened his two-day visit
to I-55 with a B-Main appearance on Friday, finishing seventh after
starting ninth to miss main event action by three spots. There were over
60 cars on the grounds for each of the World of Outlaws programs.“It was a good recovery for my
team. I’m proud of these guys. We’re starting to get more and more
comfortably with the car. It just takes laps. We’re getting there,” Rico
Abreu said. “I just can’t thank everyone enough for their support, my
partners and fans included. It takes a lot to move this team up and down
the road and I wouldn’t be where I am today without everyone’s love and
support.”Rico Abreu and Rico Abreu/Curb
