Kevin Harvick Inc. (KHI), announced today that 20-year-old NASCAR Busch East driver, Sean Caisse, will drive the No. 33 Outdoor Channel Chevrolet in the September 23, NASCAR Busch Series race at Dover (Del.) International Speedway. Caisse is the 2005 NASCAR Busch East Rookie-of-the-Year and has three wins to his credit in the 2006 Busch East season. Caisse is currently second in the Busch East points standings. Caisse, a native of Pelham, N.H., has been a stable fixture in the Northeast racing scene since 2002. He has competed in everything from Late Model Stock cars, Northeast Modifieds and Busch East cars. Caisse currently competes in the Busch East Series for veteran driver Andy Santerre and Andy Santerre Motorsports.

 

"I'm looking forward to the opportunity to drive a Busch car for KHI," said Caisse. "I'm really excited that my first Busch start will be in Dover, a track that I've got some experience on. I've been working hard to get to this point in my career, and I just want to take full advantage of the opportunity that Kevin and DeLana Harvick have given me."

 

Caisse will be making his NASCAR Busch Series debut at Dover, Del., with the No. 33 team, which currently sits 11th in NASCAR Busch Series owner points standings. Caisse will be pulling "double-duty" at Dover, Del.; competing in both the NASCAR Busch East race on Friday and the NASCAR Busch Series race on Saturday.

 

"Sean has been doing a great job in the Busch East cars all year long and has a lot of experience racing some tough competition in a heavy car," said Harvick. "DeLana and I have been watching Sean for a while and when the need came up for a driver in the No. 33 Outdoor Channel car at Dover, we thought Sean could get the job done. He's been working with Andy Santerre, who is a veteran racer and has an outstanding record. I'm sure Andy's been able to teach Sean a lot this season and hopefully that will transfer over to our Busch car."

 

Caisse will have plenty of experience in his corner when he arrives at Dover (Del.) International Speedway. He'll have his owner, competitor and Nextel Cup and Busch Series points leader Kevin Harvick to learn from, as well as the guidance from KHI General Manager and veteran racer Rick Carelli. Charlie Wilson will serve as crew chief for Caisse and the No. 33 Outdoor Channel team at Dover, Del.
