Brian Ickler

[Ryan_P]

Doing a little searching online and I found some interesting stuff. It says on Brian's website that he'll be doing 10 races in the #51 Miccosukee Resorts Toyota in the Camping World Truck Series! Looks like being buddy buddy with Kyle Busch pays off.

Glad to see someone sees the potential in Brian. Can't wait to see him run in the truck series. Also shows NOS Energy Drink as a sponsor on his #15 in the Camping World East Series. Picking up sponsors is huge now-a-days, glad to see all the hard work has paid off.

Brian’s schedule for the 2009 season include:

(10) races in the #51 Miccosukee Resorts Camping World Truck Series
(6) Races in the #15 Camping World East Series
(7) races in the ARCA Series.

NOS Energy Drink is also a Kyle Busch sponsor, so I would guess Kyle might have helped out with that too. I think NOS to Kyle is like Monster is to Robby as Kyle has the NOS patch on all his driving suits, even his Gibbs stuff and NOS has been the primary sponsor on the Truck a few times.

Good deal for Brian!

The NOS deal is def. a Kyle Busch gig, as I believe Brian ran their scheme on a late model he ran for Kyle Busch Motorsports. Regardless, that's a big plus for Brian.

The truck series jump is a huuuuge break, especially with the performance that the whole team has had. I hope for the best, Brian has a ton of talent.

Brian came into my track (I work at Stafford Speedway in Connecticut) with an unsponsored car for the last race of the season. Nobody had heard of him and nobody expected much from him. He won the pole by nearly half a second, setting the track record in the process, then went on to lead over half the race. He would have won, but Ted Christopher dumped him while he was leading with about four laps to go (Ted's famous for doing that kind of thing). Fortunately, Teddy got dumped himself, so he didn't win it either.

Brian really showed his circle track skills that day. I'm glad to see him getting noticed and moving up.

i just watched a killer interview on speed with brian. he seems very mature and focused for sure. i hope he restarts well, gets by skinner and wins in his truck debut. i never liked skinner anyway.
