Reeve
Kruck – Team Owner
Reeve Kruck, a straight forward, no nonsense, have fun at
what your doing, businessman carries that same mentality over into his ownership
of Titan Racing. Reeve has produced some of the finest and most successful
racing machines in Australia for the past decade. He also owns and operates
Titan Garages
& Carports which is Australia’s leading supplier of carports and
garages.
Titan Garages & Carports has grown to be one of the largest and most
successful steel building manufacturers in the world. Reeve has instilled
in his business that Titan’s philosophy is to build the best in quality
buildings and he plans to carry that same business etiquette over to his
Titan Racing USA World of Outlaw team and build some of the best sprint
cars possible.
Reeve has seen to it that the Titan Racing USA team has all the key ingredients
necessary for success. "I have given them the best equipment money
can buy, assembled a great crew of knowledgeable, hard working guys and
hired a top-notch driver to pilot the car. I have very high expectations
of this team, but most of all I expect them to have fun out here and win
some races," said Kruck
2005 marked the inaugural season for Titan Racing USA as Kruck expanded
his operation to Brownsburg, IN to compete with the World of Outlaws where
they put together a 7th place finish in the World of Outlaw points.

Racing Background
"I've been involved in racing since I was sixteen. From 1987 to 1993 I
worked on Lietre cars, which are between a midget and a sprint car. In 1993,
I started working on sprint cars. I joined the Titan Racing team in 1998 and
continue to work with Titan Racing USA during the World of Outlaw series. During
the winters here in the U.S, I travel home to Australia for the Australian
sprint car season where we are currently running a three car operation including,
Robbie Farr, Drew Kruck, and Daryn.

“Mandy” Pittman - Team Manager
Once a fulltime grade school teacher, now an aspiring private
pilot, Mandy has traded in her teaching to keeping the Titan USA business
running smoothly while spending her free time training for her private pilots
license.
With Reeve Kruck spending most of his time in Australia running
his Australian carport and garage business, Mandy is the person that responsibility
falls upon to get taken care of the things that need to be done to keep
Titan Racing USA up and running. Whether it be paying bills, or scheduling
hotels for the crew, she prepares the proper trucking permits, and picks
out, orders and sells team apparel. Basically in charge of everything behind
the scenes that keeps Titan Racing up and smoothly running.
Racing Background
Mike Ward, Mandy’s father has been involved in sprint car racing for
over 25 years. During this time, Mandy has become passionate about the sport
and enjoys having it as part of her and Daryn’s lives.
Daryn and Mandy met during the 1996 ASCS Speedweek at Creek County Speedway
in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Daryn stopped by Mike’s hauler to check on him
after he had crashed. One year later at Riverside Speedway, while catching
a ride on the back of Mr. Ward's four-wheeler to the drivers meeting, Daryn
asked him, “How old is your daughter?” Mandy’s father
responded with “WHY?” Mandy and Daryn talked after the races
that evening and the rest is history. |
