Patton Leads America’s Most
Wanted Racing To Texas
Stepping off the plane Wednesday evening,
JR Patton was all smiles knowing that the #63
America’s Most Wanted Racing team is holding
a great hand for the Sam’s Town 400 at
the Texas Motor Speedway.
“The guys in the shop have been working
hard to get this truck ready.” said team
owner Mike Mittler. “We have performed
well here over the years and have prepared a
very good game plan for this weekend.”
“My last time here our truck was strong
and we were doing very well.” said JR Patton. “We
moved our way into the top 10 midway thru the
race but we were swept up in an accident going
into turn four that ended our day. My spotter
told me to get down the track. As I slowed
and avoided the multi truck wreck, another competitor
ran over me from behind while running wide open
exiting turn four. That was the hardest
hit I ever have taken. Thankfully the Safety
Crews were to everyone fast and we all checked
out OK. We packed what was left of the
truck into a box and headed back to Charlotte.”
Patton went on to say, “Texas is a
great track. It is very fast and will make
for some exciting racing on Friday. Provided
we execute our game plan and work strong as a
team… we will have a great weekend. I
feel very confident that we will do well in this
race”

“Together with our sponsors, we are
asking for your help in locating Jesus Martinez
Alvarado from Houston, Texas!” Patton exclaimed.
MISSING: Houston police suspect a husband is
involved in the murder of his wife, Rocio, and
the kidnapping of her son, Jesus. Authorities
said they received a call from a relative asking
police to check on the welfare of the mother on
October 20th, 2004. But, when she wasn't at the
location given, they went to her husband's apartment.
There, officials say they found her dead.
According to police, Pedro Vargas, the husband's
roommate, found Rocio Alvarado dead under the
covers of his roommate's bed. Avelino Alvarado
is now on the run and police believe the 4-year-old,
Jesus, is with him.
The Sam’s Town 400 at Texas Motor Speedway
will air live on SPEED, MRN, XM at 9 PM ET.
