Rick Christian Racing prepares for 2007 season
By: T. J. Layne
SOUTH POINT, OHIO-After coming off of a successful 2006 season, Christian Racing is preparing to make 2007 their most successful season yet. For the first time, Christian Racing will be running two Late Models full time. Veteran Rick Christian will return in his familiar #5x and the #5t Late Model will be driven by Rick’s son, Erick Christian, who is looking forward for his first full season behind the wheel of a race car. Both cars will be almost identical, sporting the same graphics and sponsors. In addition to running two cars, Christian Racing has also improved their engine program and shock package significantly over the offseason.
For the 2007 season, Rick and Erick will be looking to go for the Rocky Top Raceway Late Model Championship as the team plans on racing at Rocky Top every Friday night. On Saturday nights, Rick and Erick will be racing at various tracks. Christian Racing also plans on racing some down south this season at the Cherokee Speedway and Lowes Motor Speedway.
The 2006 season saw Rick run up front at the Rocky Top Raceway. Despite missing five races, Rick was able to post a ninth place finish in the final point standings and was able to pick up three top five and four top ten finishes over the course of the season. If it wasn’t for bad luck striking the #5x in a few races, no doubt there would be more top five and top ten finishes as Rick ran up front each and every week. Christian Racing is excited for the upcoming 2007 season and look forward to working with sponsors NECCO and Top Gunn Graphics.
