Quotes:
“Having the opportunity to drive in the ARCA Racing Series is literally a dream come true. Two years ago, I decided I wanted to chase that dream not knowing if it would ever become a reality and here we are.
I’d like to personally thank Eric Caudell for working with me and going out of his way to open doors so I could be here. I owe him a huge thank you.
I’d also like to thank the entire CCM Racing team, all of our sponsors – Laravel, RedTide Canopies, RA Wilson Enterprises, Coble Enterprises – and everyone else that makes this possible
Thanks to my family and friends that have supported me and pushed me to pursue this dream. Without all of their support, none of this would be possible.” – Matt Wilson
“CCM Racing is looking forward to getting Matt into his first ARCA race. We tested a few times last year and are excited to finally see it happen.” – Eric Caudell
