Even though the Toyota All-Star Showdown in Irwindale, California on January
29-30 is regarded as a post season event for the East and West series, Eddie
MacDonald and the Grimm Racing Team feels it is the kickoff to the 2010
schedule. Touted as the “Daytona 500 of Short Track Racing”, the team would
like nothing better than a win in the prestigious race.
“We have been busy all winter preparing for this race and everyone is
excited to get racing and hopefully come away with the win,” said MacDonald
from his Newbury, Mass. garage. “We are bringing the car we ran there two
years ago to a fifth place finish and we have made some changes especially
with the set-up so we feel very confident of our chances. We had a great
season last year and we hope to continue this year.”

Official Release
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. – A California native, and rising star in the Joe Gibbs Racing development program, Matt DiBenedetto will return to The Golden State for the NASCAR Toyota All-Star Showdown, Jan. 29-30 at Toyota Speedway at Irwindale (Calif.).
