Engelmanas Wins 2nd Super Cup Series Championship


Homestead-Miami, FL -- Pete Engelmanas won his 2nd Super Cup Series championship last week. After winning 4 of the 5 Chase races, Engelmanas went on to win the title by 14 points over fellow teammate and team owner Mike Husby. Pete Engelmanas and the #4 Mobil 1 team, started the chase off with a dominating win at Phoenix International Raceway leading all but 1 lap. As the chase went on to the second race at Richmond, Engelmanas once again led the most laps (67) and went on to win. The third race in the chase made it interesting when Engelmanas got caught up in a wreck with Mike Husby and Tyler Tucker, threatening the chances of the #4 team, but prevailed once again with yet another win at Charlotte. North Carolina once again proved to be a race dominated by Pete Engelmanas as he went on to lead 58 of 150 laps and once again won the race. Unfortunately, Homestead would prove to be the kryptonite of the #4 team in the chase, as Engelmanas would wreck out of the race on lap 78. But it would not matter as he was crowned the 2012 CASCOR Super Cup Series champion, for the 2nd season in a row.

CASCOR would like to congratulate Pete Engelmanas and Husby Motorsports on their 2nd consecutive Super Cup Series championship. Dodge won the manufacturers championship for the first time in Super Cup Series history.
