Fall-Line Motorsports announced that it will run two cars in the Continental Tire Sports Car Championship in 2015.
Trent Hindman, who won the CTSC Grand Sport championship in a Fall-Line M3 in 2014, will return to defend his title, co-driving with Ashley Freiberg. The second car will be shared by Al Carter and Corey Lewis.
Hindman’s co-driver in his championship season was John Edwards, who is not returning to the team this year. Freiberg won the season opener last year in a Fall-Line M3 along with Shelby Blackstock. She ran a total of five races for the team in 2014, but is on board for the entire ten-race 2015 season. Carter, who raced for Fall-Line in 2013, drove a Porsche for Rebel Rock Racing in 2014. Lewis also raced for Rebel Rock, but did not co-drive with Carter.
Hindman said, "I'm incredibly excited and grateful for the opportunity to be driving the Fall-Line BMWs for another season in GS! Last season was very special for us, and we're going to be working hard to try and defend that championship in 2015. I'm also very excited to be sharing the car with Ashley Freiberg. She's shown a lot of speed and consistency as a starting driver in select races last year, and I know having her in the car will give us a great shot at keeping the car up front.”
While Fall-Line will begin the season in M3s, it is anticipated that it will switch to M4s later in the year.
The season begins with the BMW Performance 200 at Daytona on January 23.—Brian S. Morgan
