Peppermill Casino Partners With Kyle Larson For 2010 Racing Season    Elk Grove, CA. February 28, 2010. Kyle Larson and Rich Stadelhofer, owner of Stadelhofer Construction, are pleased to announce a new associate sponsorship with the Peppermill Resort Spa and Casino. The Peppermill, located in Reno, Nevada, will join forces with Larson and Stadelhofer as they embark on a promising season as driver and primary sponsor, respectively, of the number 99 sprint car entered by Brent Kaeding Motorsports. Larson is excited to have one of the premier gaming casinos and hotels in the United States as a marketing partner going into the upcoming racing campaign. “We are extremely pleased to have such a prominent company as the Peppermill Resort Spa and Casino come on board with us. This is their first time to get involved in the sponsorship of a racing team and it is an honor for me to have their logo on the car. I think they will really be happy they are involved with such a great team in such an exciting sport.” Peppermill Casinos, Inc. has grown to be the largest privately owned gaming company in Nevada with six casinos, five with hotels, located in Reno, Sparks, Henderson and Wendover. The company's modest beginnings were in 1971 when Nat Carasali and Bill Paganetti, two lifelong friends, opened the Peppermill Coffee Shop and Lounge in Reno. In 1980, with the opening of a small casino and motor lodge units, the Peppermill entered the gaming arena in northern Nevada. The Reno property has undergone nine major expansions and recently celebrated the Grand Opening of its $400 million Tuscan-themed expansion. The expansion features a 17-story hotel tower, spa and salon, three new restaurants, pool, garden and nightclub. Reno's premier hotel casino will offer 1,630 rooms with 785 suites, 12 restaurants and over 102,000 square feet of convention space.

Larson started off the 2010 season with a 10th place finish in last month’s Chili Bowl Midget Nationals A-main event in Tulsa, Oklahoma competing against 260 competitors. The Stadelhofer Construction/Peppermill Resort Spa and Casino/ Kaeding Performance Center Maxim powered by Ron Shaver racing engines will debut at the unsanctioned Mini Gold Cup at Chico’s Silver Dollar Speedway on March 12th and 13th. The 17 year old Larson, the 2009 Golden State Challenge Series Rookie of the Year who finished fifth in last year’s points chase, will then compete in the full slate for 410 sprint cars again this season with his eye on his first sprint car title. The series first race will take place at Placerville Speedway on March 27th. “I’m looking forward to the start of the racing season” said Larson. “I’m with an awesome team. They have the best crew, the best stuff, and I’m anticipating having a very competitive year. I feel I have a very good shot at contending for the point championship with the Golden State Challenge series and I’m excited to get on the track.” Larson’s full 2010 racing schedule is posted on his website at www.kylelarsonracing.com, along with the latest news and racing results.
