MOPAR\'S HUBINETTE HAS ENJOYED ACTION-PACKED SEASON

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

MOPAR'S HUBINETTE HAS ENJOYED ACTION-PACKED SEASON

Center Line, Mich. - Team Mopar's Samuel Hubinette has enjoyed quite a ride
during the inaugural Formula D Series season this year. As the series point
leader heading into Sunday's final event at Irwindale Speedway, Hubinette is
riding high on the momentum of three straight Formula D Series victories. But as
"The Crazy Swede" prepares, he is quick to turn the spotlight back on those who
have helped him post this stellar season.


"I wouldn't have been in this situation without Mopar, NuFormz Racing and
Lateral G Racing," Hubinette said. "All of the elements for this team came
together so quickly before the first event, but we've been able to work well
together as a team, and as a result, we've done extremely well. Mopar has provided
outstanding support to us as a team, and their support has allowed me to focus
on my role as a driver. I am extremely happy to have been a part of this team's
efforts."


Hubinette is also pleased to have been a part of growing the sport of
drifting throughout North America.


"This has been an overwhelming year," Hubinette said. "The support we've
received from our sponsors, the series and most importantly, the fans has been
unbelievable. I have been so blessed to have been a part of this period of growth
for drifting, there isn't anyway I couldn't be pleased about this season's
outcome."


While Hubinette is well aware of the seriousness of the growth the series has
seen this season, he is all drift driver when it comes to heading into the
Irwindale event. "We, drifting enthusiasts, get to do what we love, which is put
on a show for the fans," he said. "Drifting an awesome car like the Mopar
Dodge Viper at high speeds in front of thousands of people…what a rush! I'm
really looking forward to drifting at Irwindale Speedway this weekend on one of
the best courses for speed, angle and cutting tandem drifting action. How cool
is that?!"


Spoken like a true drifter.


Samuel Hubinette and the Formula D Series will compete at Irwindale Speedway
