ALBANY, NY - Ross Motorsports announced today that Nativepoker.com will join the team as an associate sponsor for Super DIRT Week 2005 at the New York State Fairgrounds in Syracuse, NY. Super DIRT Week, which features the Eckerd 200, the longest and highest paying event of the year, will take place Tuesday, October 4 through Sunday, October 9, 2005.

Termed 'the new deal in online poker,' Nativepoker.com has streamlined all aspects of playing internet poker from the comfort of your home with the opportunity to play against others from around the world. Al Krux, the 1996 World Series of Poker Pot Limit Hold'em Champion and consultant for Native American casinos and poker rooms in the Northeast, will be the site host and #1 pro for the web site.

Currently in the Beta Testing phase, Nativepoker.com will offer a wide variety of poker games such as No-limit, Pot-limit and Limit Hold'em. Having pioneered the concept of Casino Affiliate Networks in which players qualify for major casino tournaments, Nativepoker.com players can also qualify for WSOP and WPT events.

Ross Motorsports will enter two Enders powered Bicknell cassis cars at Syracuse and with a history of success in the Eckerd 200, the team will be a major contender for a victory in the grueling test of man and machine.

Driver Matt Sheppard has tasted success at the Moody Mile in a support event and is ready to make the next step to victory in the 200 mile event.

Team owner, Randy Ross, is very pleased to have Nativepoker.com join his other sponsors. "I appreciate their involvement at this year's Super DIRT Week and hope to have them join us in victory lane." For more information on Nativepoker.com visit their web site at www.nativepoker.com.
