Arizona Racer Victor Pfluger Ranks High in Prestigious NASCAR Scouting Report 

Phoenix, AZ, February 10, 2009 - Arizona native and NASCAR hopeful Victor Pfluger is ranked 5th among 36 drivers from across the country in the 2009 Local Track category on the influential DavidSmithMotorsports.com scouting report.

The ranking represents a significant achievement for the 18-year-old Morristown driver who's been lighting up racetracks in Arizona and the Southwest since the age of 10.  Pfluger ranked 18th in the Local Track category last year. 

"I am truly excited to have my efforts recognized by someone as important to NASCAR as David Smith," said Pfluger.  "I am very happy to have moved up his rankings." 

David Smith is a NASCAR talent scout who has provided coverage of top racing prospects since 2001.  DavidSmithMotorsports.com is the premier talent scouting website for NASCAR racing prospects.  Young drivers from across the country are rated solely on their NASCAR Sprint Cup Series potential.  Ratings criteria include on-track success, character traits, adaptability, strength of the current competition, and overall driving ability. 
While Victor Pfluger has caught the eye of NASCAR talent scouts and competitors alike, he is actively seeking sponsorship for the 2009 season to take his career to the next level.  Without an immediate source of sponsorship funding, Pfluger may not be able to continue the record-setting performances that have been a trademark of his racing career. 

In 2005, at age 14, Victor became the youngest driver in ASA Speed Truck history to win a feature race, and he followed that up in 2006 by becoming the youngest driver to finish the year in the top five in points in that series. 

Then, in 2007, at age 16, Pfluger won the ASA Speed Truck Challenge Championship, again the youngest driver ever to do so.  The driver he beat out for the title came back to win it last season - at age 43.  Over the years, the ASA has produced many of the finest drivers in stock car racing, including Rusty Wallace, Mark Martin, Jimmie Johnson, Matt Kenseth and Kyle Busch.

In 2008, fresh off his ASA Speed Truck Series Championship, Victor competed in the NASCAR Super Late Model series and scored several wins, including a hard-fought victory against former NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series Champion Ron Hornaday.
