Theriault Gains More Experience, Looking Forward to Montgomery

Michelle Theriault

Smyrna, GA - The Nesbitt Racing .45 GLOCK took to the track last Saturday with 19-year-old Michelle Theriault at the wheel for the Astro Exterminating & Termidor 250.  The race proved to be a good test for the young drivers' skills as she guided the vehicle virtually unscathed through the field for a 21st place finish.

For the second race of the young season, Theriault was able to gain valuable experience behind the wheel. "This was my first time for this track and it lived up to its growing reputation as a track with multiple lines available to a racer, I just got on the wrong line in the beginning of the race, which put us behind," stated Theriault. The first part of the race found the .45 GLOCK Ford Fusion going to the back and having to fight its way through the field.

"Going a lap down early was not in our plans but it happened, and we did everything we could to get that lap back," commented spotter Mart Nesbitt. But as the racing settled down and the 17 cautions that slowed the race took its share of competitors, Theriault found her grove and was able to race the leaders during the rest of the race.

"I am still finding myself with this car and with the team. We learn so much with each race, that as soon as we put the car away, were thinking about what were going to do for the next race to do better," commented the upbeat Theriault after the race.

"This is a breakthrough season for us at GLOCK. We have the ability to sponsor a Ford Fusion and we have a young talent and established team that's competing at every turn. We couldn't be happier, " commented Ed Fitzgerald, Director of Marketing for GLOCK.

The team is looking forward to the next race in Montgomery on March 25, as TEAM GLOCK again gets to attack the half mile surface for 250 laps of racing excitement.
