Default CRP Racing Signs Mike Skeen in Corvette

CRP Racing is very excited to announce Mike Skeen will be driving the Cragar Wheels C6 Corvette for the full 2011 season in SCCA Pro World Challenge GT!

Mike Skeen, of Charlotte, NC, scored a World Challenge GT debut victory last year, winning Round 8 at the Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course. Together in Rounds 8 and 9, Skeen won the MTM Special Ops Best Move of the Race, Invisible Glass Clean Pass of the Race, Qualified 2nd and had the fastest Race Lap in both races.

CRP Racing owner, Nicholas Short, is excited to have this young, talented driver returning full time to the Cragar/CRP Racing Team. Says Short, “I knew he was the guy to represent us in the Cragar Corvette for the 2011 season and our sponsor, Cragar Wheels, agrees. I look forward to seeing Mike as a regular on the World Challenge GT podium.”

CRP Racing and Mike Skeen plan to not only have a winning team, but one that is fan oriented as well. Current updates, videos (including exciting in-car videos) and photos will be posted all race weekend long at www.CompetitionRaceParts.com and at www.MikeSkeen.com. You can also follow Mike and CRP Racing on their Facebook pages. The team invites all fans to stop by the transporter at all the races to meet Mike and the crew and to check out the Cragar Corvette.

Default Congratulations to Mike Skeen and CRP



These are two first class competitors. I have had some work done on my C6 at Nick's shop and the service and quality are top notch. I bumped into Mike Skeen at CMP where he was coaching another driver. When I first saw him there I was thought my eyes were fooling me. I went over to say hello and he couldn't have been any nicer.

Best wishes for a great season!!!

You guys are making it hard to not return to St. Pete this year to watch the W/C. Our Club is putting on a low speed autocross that Saturday! I may just miss our season opening event!

Best of luck this year, we'll be rooting for you!
