Indianapolis, IN (February 26, 2006) – Driver Tommy St. John
and Keller Motorsports have officially announced their plans for the
2006 season in the CRA Super Series. The team
will
make the trek to Nashville for the All American 150 at
the Music City Motorplex on March 18 and continue with the CRA Series
through the first five races of the 2006 schedule. After the fifth
event, the team will evaluate their performance and decide if they
will continue to run the full schedule or just a few selected events.
"I cannot thank Steve Keller and Keller Motorsports enough for
giving me such a great opportunity to drive for his team," said driver
Tommy St. John. "Steve has a very successful business that requires a
lot of time and resources and there may be some races this year that
we just are not able to make if the team’s finances get tight. Our
plan is to run the first five races then evaluate things. If we have
done well and have not torn up our equipment, we may continue going
after the season championship. If we run into trouble during the first
five races, we may skip a few events and focus on the big events such
as the Anderson 250 and Winchester 400."
Team Owner Steve Keller acknowledges Tommy’s talent and elaborates
on his hopes for Tommy. "If we have to run limited schedule in CRA, I
hope someone gives Tommy an opportunity to show his talents during our
off weeks," said Keller. "Tommy is the best driver I have ever seen
and it would be great if he could get a full-time ride with an ARCA or
Hooters team. I want to support him as much as possible and even
though my racing plans are with the CRA, I don’t want to hold Tommy
back if he gets a shot. He definitely deserves it!"
Last year, Tommy won the 2005 Rookie of the Year Championship
by logging five top-10 finishes and finishing ninth overall in the
final 2005 CRA Super Series Championship Points.
