CRAWFORD TEAMS UP WITH SUPERSEAL FOR CHICAGO
Rick Crawford and SUPERSEAL Construction Products are teaming up again for this weekends Chicagoland 225 at Chicagoland Speedway. Crawford will be behind the wheel of the #73 SUPERSEAL Chevy supplied by Ron Crosby and Joey Sonntag’s Tagsby Racing. After a successful pairing in Kansas, Travis Sharpe will return to the top of the pit box for Crawford in Chicago.
When Crawford takes the green flag in Chicago he will extend his Camping World Truck Series starts to a series record of 328. This will be Crawford’s first start in a Chevrolet and the first time he has driven anything other than a Ford in NASCAR competition. In the Series only outing at Chicagoland, Crawford qualified 5th and recorded a 4th place finish.
“The last time Rick was in our truck, we received more exposure in one race than we had all season. Not only is he a great spokesman for SUPERSEAL, he can get the job done on the track.” Said Ted Hubert, President of SUPERSEAL Construction Products. “Along with his driving duties we’ve asked Rick to help mentor along our late model driver, Brian Johnson, Jr.. With Rick’s guidance we hope to have Brian in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series by the end of this season.”
Crawford stated: “I’m excited about getting behind the wheel again and I appreciate SUPERSEAL making it possible. Mr. Hubert has been working hard to get SUPERSEAL into the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series and this weekend is another step forward. I enjoyed working with Travis (Sharpe) in Kansas and I’m glad we’ll be together again in Chicago. Having made my way to NASCAR through late model racing I’m looking forward to helping Brian (Johnson, Jr.) make the next step up in his career. It’s hard to believe that my SUPERSEAL truck will be wearing a bow tie instead of a blue oval this weekend but everything seems to be changing.”
