BILLY TANNER, NO. 07 CHEAPCARIBBEAN.COM PONTIAC GRAND PRIX
After scoring a top-20 finish last Saturday night at Kentucky Speedway, Billy Tanner will look to build his ARCA RE/MAX Series resume by making his first short track start on Sunday afternoon at Toledo Speedway.
Tanner has two previous starts in the ARS at Daytona International Speedway and last weekend at Kentucky Speedway. CheapCaribbean.com will sponsor the team’s efforts for the eighth race of the 2007 season.
Tanner, a promising driver from Newtown, Pennsylvania will make several starts for Stott Classic Racing (SCR) this season. Following Toledo, the team will attempt to make Iowa followed by Pocono and Michigan.
During the only practice today, Tanner clicked off the 25th fastest lap with a time of 17.662 seconds equaling a speed of 101.914 MPH.
Tanner drew the third position for SIM Factory pole qualifying set for later this afternoon.
“Overall not bad. I’m learning the track, but we’re making adjustments. I think our car will be good in race trim, but we’re not totally concentrating there. We’re not locked into the show, so we also worked hard on our qualifying setup. We should be okay in qualifying and we’ll look to improve on our finish from last week tomorrow.”
