< Back to News Home Team Sahlen focusing on 3rd Top 10 result in a row

Posted (07/16/2009) -

Team Sahlen enters this weekend's ROLEX Grand American event at Barber Motorsports Park with the focus of continuing the string of Top 10 finishes.  At the Sahlen's 6 Hour event at Watkins Glen, the #42 Corvette captured 10th place.  Then at the Mid-Ohio event 2 weeks later, the #43 Corvette followed that up with a 2nd consecutive 10th place finish.  

 

And if history is any indicator, then that string looks very likely in continuing this weekend..  The 2008 edition of the ROLEX event at Barber was favorable to Team Sahlen as the #43 & #42 Corvettes finished 8th and 9th respectively in the race.  

 

"We are very excited about the Barber Motorsports weekend.  Team Sahlen choose to skip the Daytona event held 2 weeks ago to further develop our Corvettes.  We feel we have made some major progress.  But of course we will not know for sure until we hit the track." - states Joe Nonnamaker

 

The Barber Motorsports Park event will be televised live on SPEED Channel on July 19th at 3 pm
