Matt Hall: Looking forward
to CRA Super Series invasion of Plymouth Speedway
Newport, MI (July 22, 2011) - As has
been the case throughout 18-year-old Matt Hall's Rookie season in the
CRA Super Series, the majority of the tracks on the 2011 schedule are
facilities that the Newport, Michigan driver usually has never seen
before pulling his rig into the pit area on race day. In the case of
the next race on the schedule, the Plymouth 125 at Plymouth Speedway
in Plymouth, Indiana, that's not so.
This Sunday, July 24th, the Matt Hall
Motorsports Team will make the trip to the 3/8s (0.375) mile
semi-banked paved oval having some experience on the Northern Indiana
speed plant. Hall has seen time there in the old Super Pro Series (Now
JEGS/CRA All-Stars Tour Presented by GM Performance Parts) and hopes
that experience will aid him in his efforts to capture the series'
2011 Rookie of the Year title.
"We're trying some new things for this weekend
at Plymouth. My crew is not giving up and they are still putting in
the hours even while we're in this slump," Remarked Hall. "I can't say
enough about these guys. Plymouth is one of the tracks I have had many
laps around and am familiar with. We have always run very well there
and the whole team is very excited for the weekend."
In Hall's last race at M-40 Speedway in Jones,
Michigan back on July 10th, he finished 14th in the race won by Steve
Dorer and completed all 125 laps of the Independence Day 125. "M-40
was challenging and track position was very important. We missed it a
little in qualifying and that started us in the back which did not
help matters. Took a big try at it for the race and the car went super
tight." He explained.
With that finish, his third top 15 finish of
the season in six starts, Hall did slip outside of the overall top 10
in the points standings and sits just four points back of Damon Ecoff
who sits 10th. Hall is also third in the 2011 Rookie of the Year title
chase behind leaders; Derrick Griffin and Mason Mingus.
"We're looking forward to going to Plymouth
this weekend. Plymouth has always treated us well and we like the
track there," Added Matt Hall Motorsports Car Owner and Father, Kenny
Hall. "We have been working hard on the car and getting it to where
Matt wants it but it's been a struggle this season. We have had some
problems all season and were hoping to break out of our shell. The
crew has been working hard to change some stuff around and we hope we
can get things going forward." He ended.
The Matt Hall Motorsports Team consists of:
Crew Chief, Brian Moore, with help from Kyle Breese, Levi Mansfield,
