Bicycle Clay Poker Chips - Menards 125

Race Preview @ Kalamazoo Speedway Tommy St. John and #29 Tri-Axle Trucking Chevrolet

Indianapolis, IN (July 26, 2005) – Tommy St. John and the Keller Motorsports Racing team are looking to extend their two consecutive Rookie of the Race awards this weekend as CRA Super Series rolls into Kalamazoo Speedway for the Bicycle Clay Poker Chips – Menards 125 on Sunday, July 31. The 3/8 mile egg-shaped oval can offer trouble to newcomers who have to search for the fastest way around the track. Additionally, many local drivers will be competing trying to steal a win from the touring regulars. This will be the first visit for St. John and Keller Motorsports to the extremely popular Michigan track.

Pre-race talk with Tommy St. John, driver of the No. 29 Tri-Axle Trucking Chevrolet:

Kalamazoo is another new track for you. What are your thoughts going into Sunday’s race?

"I am looking forward to it. I have never seen the track before so it will be tough. My dad has made a few calls about the setup so we know we should be at least close. We just need to get the car to turn in the corner and we will be okay. My dad has been working hard it out and we are trying some new things this weekend so we will see."

Looking back at the Anderson 400, you had a top-10 finish in the longest race of the year. Tell us about the race?

"I wish it was 600 laps! Cars started falling out like flies at the end and we just kept moving up. I wasn’t as tired as I thought I would be. I felt pretty good after the race. We battled a tight car all night which is the same problem we have been having for a few races. I tried to run the high-line but the car was too tight. Overall, I am extremely happy with the race and thankful for the crew that came out and helped."

 

You gained more points in the Rookie of the Year Championships, could Kalamazoo be three in a row

for the Rookie of the Race award?

"I know we can win the Rookie Championship. We just need to continue to run good and finish. If we do that

at Kalamazoo, we could win the award again"
