Keener once told me "each of our cars have to earn the right to wear CM trademark" so if they're hard at work, there's no doubt we'll see white & blue

grapevines coming out of Michigan is, it has been very challenging but rewarding for the hard work and extra effort. good luck to Mike and Paul hope to see them and the new car soon.

Paul and I would be the first to tell you this new 2014 COPO is totally than any of our previous cars and we are working hard to deal with it. Up to now we have only made 8 runs, we have our hands full for sure, but are optimistic about the all of the possibilities and potential this car has.

Hopefully we will be at Indy in B/S (it can't run A) with our COPO 350. If all goes well we hope to be ready for the shoot out event at Maple Grove. When we make the switch from the 350 to the Shoot out 427 without a doubt the challenges ahead will begin all over again and we are looking to it.

This is not going to be easy to do!
