Bakken said, “Unicover and its employees are proud of the opportunity to become a part of the #52 Ken Schrader Racing team. This relationship stems from the grass roots of dirt modified racing where I had the pleasure of not only meeting, but also competing against Kenny, allowing him to become familiar with our brand. This sponsorship is a great fit as the success and future of Unicover merges with the success and future of Austin Theriault.”
We’re thrilled to have Unicover with us for the Chicagoland race,” Ken Schrader, team owner said. “Our crew chief Donnie Richeson and the entire team have put Austin in a position to win or finish well every week.
