Capaldi Racing is heading to St. Petersburg, Fla., for the 2013 Pirelli World Challenge season opener with Mustang veteran, Brad Adams, and Mustang newcomer, Ardee Toppe -- both piloting brand new Mustang Boss 302Ss. Adams, who has raced with Capaldi Racing in the GRAND-AM Continental Tire Sports Car Challenge, will be driving an updated version of his familiar bright green “Who Dat!?” Mustang while Toppe will be making his Mustang debut in the Toppe Motorsport, Texas-livered Mustang. 

“We’re really excited to have Brad and Ardee on the team this year,” said Leo Capaldi. “Brad has been great to have on the team over the years and Ardee is a great addition.  We have a lot of history with the Pirelli World Challenge, going back to 1999, and I’m really happy to be back for another year. Campaigning Brad’s and Ardee’s Mustangs and supporting Alec Udell in the Motorsport Development Group Mustang Boss 302R is fantastic. Having my son, Chris, running the Wolverine Bronze Co. Fiesta in the TCB class makes things even better!”

Coverage of rounds one and two from St. Petersburg will be live streamed on www.world-challengetv.com on Saturday at 5 p.m. EST and on Sunday at 10:25 a.m. EST.  Like Capaldi Racing on Facebook and follow us on Twitter for the latest team updates.
