The 2010 race season brings some very exciting news for Lauren Cooper Racing. Lauren was asked to drive for Brit Andersen Motorsports – Brit Andersen car owner and Stash Butova co-owner of the #70 S.K. Light Modified at Stafford Motor Speedway in Stafford Springs, CT. She will be taking over the driver responsibility from Brit Andersen who drove the car to 13 feature wins in just three seasons and is always at the top of the speed charts. Lauren knows that she will have some big shoes to fill, but she also feels very confident that she will be behind the wheel of a race car that can win each and every week. That is something that she has yet to experience since moving up from karting into racing full size cars. It has been a struggle over the last three years of racing; Lauren has been a rookie for those last three years, racing in a new division and a different style race car each year. The crew was also comprised of rookies and that led to ill handling cars and a lot of mechanical issues as well. This will be the first season that Lauren will be running the full season and she has set some goals for herself and her new team. Lauren intends to win a few races this year, contend for a track championship, and win the Most Popular Driver Award (she has been in the running the last two years).

Lauren and her new team will be hitting the track early this year getting an extra practice in on April 9^th and then the open practice on April 17^th. That will lead into the opening weekend of the 39^th annual Tech Net Spring Sizzler Weekend scheduled for April 23-25.
