We are extremely pleased and energized to join forces with an industry leader that we have admired and with which we have closely collaborated over the past year.

I have admired Emilio Pucci for as long as I can remember and I am extremely flattered,

A leader is admired, a boss is feared.

I am very pleased to have Gary Putnam join my organization. He will be an invaluable asset to me as well as our crew chief. He adds a tremendous amount of depth to the Tide Racing program and will help us grow as we move forward into a multi-car team.

I'm extremely pleased and gratified. I worked extremely hard.

The [industry] is doing extremely well. ACID is really making a mark. Anything different is great. They have a great market, a well- made product, and the company's advertising and marketing are incredible.
