Williams signed with Score Motorsports as first-time Drive for Diversity SM program participant.

The Drive for DiversitySM program announced today that NASCAR driver Terri Williams has been added to the program's 2005 roster, competing in the NASCAR Dodge Weekly Series (NDWS) this season for SCORE Motorsports, co-owned by NASCAR veteran Hermie Sadler and former NBA player Bryant Stith.

Williams, who hails from Emporia, Va., will race NDWS events at South Boston Speedway in South Boston, Va. where she will pilot the No. 02 Chevrolet Late Model Stock Car.  Williams was South Boston Speedway's Grand Stock Division Champion in 2004, posting three wins and eight top-five finishes in 10 races.  "I am excited to be selected as a member of the Drive for Diversity team for 2005," said Williams.  "I hope in some way this will help pave the way for other diverse drivers of the future."

"We are looking forward to our continued involvement in the Drive for Diversity program, and are very pleased to have Terri Williams driving our car at South Boston Speedway," said Hermie Sadler, co-owner of SCORE Motorsports.  "I have been very impressed with her testing progress over the past couple of weeks and have high hopes for a successful season."

"Drive for Diversity looks forward to an exciting season and we're happy to have Terri Williams add to that excitement," said Greg Calhoun, President and CEO of Access Marketing & Communications, which executes Drive for Diversity.  "We had a great inaugural season with SCORE Motorsports and look forward to further cultivating this relationship throughout the 2005 season."
