Donny Schatz and his crew pulled his new Kenworth/Blue Beacon Truck Washes hauler in to the Quick Coupling Division in Golden Valley for an early pit-stop. The employees at QCD were the first group to view the new ‘100 Years of Trucking" paint scheme.

The employees had the opportunity to get an up close look at his new sprint car and hauler. The Schatz Motorsports team was on the way to a World of Outlaws show at Knoxville, IA. Schatz also had his brand new tour T-shirts and racing merchandise on display. Many of the employees took advantage of this opportunity and had Donny autograph their new racing wearables.

Many of the employees were very impressed with the level of professionalism the World of Outlaw’s team displayed. "That set-up is unbelievable," stated Jason Mikulski, Design Engineer at QCD. "I can’t wait until they run at Cedar Lake. The Outlaws are the fastest thing out there."

There will be a large group of people from QCD attending the event at the Cedar Lake Speedway on July 13. The ParkerStores are sponsoring Schatz for ten events. This will include three nationally televised shows on TNN.

The photos below capture some of the afternoon’s events. All employees were treated to ice cream before the long July 4th weekend.

Special thanks to Cathy Nelson for all of the excellent photos.
