                       RECOGNIZING GRAY GAULDING

                      Thursday, February 27, 2014

  Ms. FOXX. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Gray Gaulding, a 
young man from Statesville, North Carolina. Mr. Gaulding recently 
piloted his NTS Motorsports Krispy Kreme/TruMoo Number 20 Chevrolet 
Impala to victory at Phoenix International Raceway, making him the 
youngest NASCAR K&N Pro Series winner ever. Gray is 15 years old.
  Gray began his racing career on dirt bikes at the age of three. Once 
he found his way onto four wheels, he won an incredible 17 of the first 
27 races he competed in on the youth development level. He has since 
amassed numerous wins on Bandolero, Legend and Super Late Model racing 
circuits throughout the Southeast.
  I wish Gray Gaulding well as he chases the checkered flag and the 
championship in the NASCAR K&N Pro Series East this year. North 
Carolina's Fifth Congressional district is proud to be the home of this 
fine young man and I look forward to a bright future for this 
remarkable young racecar driver.
