Jekyll and Hyde Weekend Coming up for Coleman
Coleman along with Huggies, Pull-Ups and Rite Aid to honor moms everywhere

(Nashville, Tenn.) - This weekend brings together an interesting combination- the track too tough to tame and Mother's Day weekend. It will be a Jekyll and Hyde weekend for the Diamond Hill Plywood 250. The race falls on a weekend known for honoring mothers and being gentle but it features a track that has dominated drivers for decades, known for being unforgiving.

Brad Coleman and his No. 27 Huggies/Rite Aid Ford Fusion team are ready to battle the track while at the same time saying thanks to mothers everywhere on this special weekend.

"I've never raced at Darlington before," said Coleman, "It's got a reputation that's quite intimidating, but I'm ready for it. Plus, it is a perfect way for me to be able to honor my mom on Mother's Day weekend by bringing her home a solid finish!"

This is a special week for the team as they will be honoring all mothers for Mother's Day by featuring a unique paint scheme from Rite Aid, Huggies and Pull-Ups brands.

"My mom has been supportive of my racing career," smiled Coleman. "And, for each of my crew members as well with this No. 27 Huggies/Rite Aid team, there's a special mom at home that we owe a big thank you to for standing behind each one of us. It is ironic though that running on such a tough track falls on this soft weekend."
