Reed Sorenson to Gillett Evernham Motorsports

| | Comments (0) |

Reed Sorenson is the latest driver to switch teams. He will be driving for Gillett Evernham Motorsports in 2009, moving from Chip Ganassi's NASCAR Sprint Cup Series team.
It was not clear if GEM will add another car to its three-car team.
"We will announce Reed's sponsorships and car number in the near future," said Tom Reddin, CEO of GEM. "He is a highly marketable young driver who knows how to win races, and has a long career full of promise ahead of him."
Kasey Kahne, Elliott Sadler and Patrick Carpentier are in the cars for GEM currently.
"I'm pretty pumped up about this," said Sorenson who started racing at age 6 before winning 250 quarter midget races and 84 Legends races.
"I can't wait to get in their cars," said Sorenson. "I really believe in what they are doing with their program with all their wins and poles this year. Ray Evernham and the Gilletts are going to give us the equipment we need to go out and be a contender each weekend and eventually race for a championship."
