Anders Krohn Claims the Pole at Sebring for Round One of 2010 Star Mazda Championship Presented by Goodyear
ANDERS KROHN CLAIMS THE POLE AT SEBRING FOR ROUND ONE OF 2010 STAR MAZDA CHAMPIONSHIP PRESENTED BY GOODYEAR Sebring International Raceway / Thursday , March 18 – Anders 'The Viking' Krohn, the Norwegian racer who won on the Milwaukee Mile and finished 6th in the championship last year, demonstrated that he is much more of a force to be reckoned with in his second season of competition in the 2010 Star Mazda Championship presented by Goodyear. Back with Andersen Racing, the team with which he won the 2008 F2000 championship, Krohn turned a lap of 1:58.053 (112.831 mph) in his #47 Andersen Racing / Norse Cutting & Abandonment / Trallfa / Colosseum Mazda to claim the inside of the front row for the 12:45 pm standing start of Friday's Star Mazda season-opener. The time is a new Star Mazda track record; the previous best time was 1:59.986 set by 2007 Series champion Dane Cameron. "The track is not quite as 'grippy' as it was yesterday, so the times aren't quite as quick as in practice," says Krohn, who qualified 6th and finished 17th in this event last year due to mechanical problems. "But the Andersen team has done a tremendous job to give me such a quick, consistent car and I'm very happy to be starting from my first-ever Star Mazda pole; this is half of the best possible way to start a season; now I just have to complete the second half by winning the race." It was a back-and-forth battle throughout two days of practice and this morning's qualifying session between Krohn and his Andersen Racing teammates Mikael Grenier and Tristan Vautier.

2012 INDIANAPOLIS 500 DAILY TRACKSIDE REPORTS NEWS ARTICLES 2012 Indianapolis 500 Daily Trackside Reports 1 Team, Drivers Happy With Test Of New Car At IMS. April 04, 2012 | By Tom Surber Nine teams jump‐started their preparation for the 96th Indianapolis 500 by testing the new IZOD IndyCar Series car Wednesday at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Participating teams and the INDYCAR engine group gathered data regarding handling characteristics and performance levels from their Chevrolet and Honda‐powered cars. One car/driver combination from each team was invited to participate. Driving Chevrolet‐powered 2.2‐liter, twin‐ turbocharged V‐6 engines in their Dallara chassis were Ed Carpenter (Ed Carpenter Racing), Tony Kanaan (KV Racing Technology), Marco Andretti (Andretti Autosport), JR Hildebrand (Panther Racing) and Helio Castroneves (Team Penske). Driving Honda‐powered cars were Scott Dixon (Target Chip Ganassi Racing), Takuma Sato (Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing), Mike Conway (A.J. Foyt Racing) and Justin Wilson (Dale Coyne Racing). The cars were run in the Speedway configuration, with the new rear‐wheel guards that are taller, lighter and have a slightly different shape than the sets being used on the road/street circuits and the oval races at Texas Motor Speedway, Iowa Speedway and The Milwaukee Mile. The new IZOD IndyCar Series car will make its competitive oval debut Sunday, May 27 at the 96th Indianapolis 500. Quotes from selected participants during the midday media availability: TONY KANAAN (No. 11 GEICO/Mouser Electronics KVRT w/ SH Dallara/Chevrolet) Q: What was it like out there?

Philip Creighton Motorsport 2009 Racing Season
Philip Creighton Motorsport 2009 Racing Season 2009 While Philip Creighton Motorsport has been involved in racing for several years, we are now expanding our horizon with the desire to be involved in new projects. This desire comes with the knowledge that we can offer the proper product in the most profes- sional manner. The team itself has been involved mostly in sports car and SCCA Club racing in recent years, although its team members extended their experience in other several formula car series as consultants for other teams. Having worked in the most competitive series in US and been part of the most profes- sional teams, we are now prepared to face the same challenges with in-house pro- jects. That’s why we are prepared to run formula cars again entirely out of our shop, as opposed to subcontracting for others. To make you better understand our capabilities let us introduce ourselves and our fa- cility in the following pages. We also would like to give you a quick overview of the series we feel is a good step from karting and racing school environments and in which we have the capability and desire to run: the F2000 Championship Series. The Team Philip Creighton Motorsport is comprised of dynamic and focused people. Phil Creighton, team owner, was born and raised in England, UK. He’s been living and working in Atlanta, GA for several years. He earned a Degree in Mechanical Engineering at Loughborough College specializing in Motor Vehicle Technology. Phil worked as Team Manager/ Engineer/Owner in IMSA, ALMS, Grand-Am, USRRC and Camel Light and he is a former IMSA Mechanic of the Year, having run several sports car projects over the years and competed against the best in racing, achieving great results, such as the class win at the 12 Hours of Sebring and at the Petite Le Mans.
