Joshua Hernandez, one of the most successful Pro Extreme drivers in ADRL history, scored another win today when it was announced that he will compete in the 2008 season with sponsorship from the National Guard.

Hernandez will drive next season as one-half of a two-car team. The driver for the second car has not yet been announced.

"I'm honored to represent the citizen-soldiers of the National Guard, and it's a responsibility that I take very seriously," Hernandez said from the annual PRI show in Orlando. "I'm very excited to have the opportunity to put a National Guard car into the winner's circle in 2008."

ADRL President Kenny Nowling said he was happy to welcome the Guard to yet another role in the ADRL's 2008 season. The National Guard had previously been announced as the series' new presenting sponsor and will also be the title sponsor for the inaugural Budd's Creek, Md., event next season (the 1-800-GO-GUARD.com U.S. Drags in July).

"This is an exciting time; I'm just thrilled with the National Guard's involvement at all levels of ADRL activity," Nowling said. "This latest development with Josh's team is a testament to both the Guard's commitment to the ADRL and to our series' unlimited potential."

Hernandez is a two-time ADRL national event winner, and is one of only three Pro Extreme drivers to have 20 or more career round-wins.
