    RACE RESULTS BELOW DO NOT READ IF YOU PLAN TO WATCH ON SPEED TV



    For Immediate Release

    May 21, 2006


    STaSIS Motorsports has best team performance in 5 year history at Mid Ohio.

    After qualifying 2nd behind Pierre Klienubig, Chip Herr took the win after jumping out in front at the start of the race. Piloting his brand new Mahle powered STaSIS B7 A4 quattro through three full course yellows and several attempts by Klienubig to take the lead, Chip took his first career World Challenge win. After the race Chip commented," The whole team worked really hard to get to this point and STaSIS has build a first rate car that should allow me to be competitive all year long." Chip now stands in 3rd overall just edging out last years champion Real Time's owner and driver Peter Cunningham.

    STaSIS Rookie driver Jeff Courtney also had his strongest performance in World Challenge at Mid Ohio coming from 8th place working his way to 4th past some very impressive names in World Challenge racing. After passing Randy Pobst coming out of the Key Hole Jeff said," The car felt fantastic and it did everything I asked it to do. Chasing down Randy I could tell he was working every last bit out of his car to stay ahead. After several laps I noticed he was really trying to out brake me before the Key Hole and on that last go around he pushed a little too hard and I knew it was my opportunity." Jeff was also awarded the Piloti Rookie of the Race; his second of the season.

    "Fast Freddy" Baker was exactly that as he posted the fastest lap of the race at 1:33.915 and worked his way up to 5th after qualifying 9th. Freddy was definitely feeling very comfortable with the freshly paved Mid Ohio track and was at one point as high as 4th in the race. Freddy commented," I felt right at home in the Mahle powered STaSIS A4 as it was set up perfectly, I knew I had a 2nd or 3rd place car under me but the 3 full course yellows did not allow me enough time to get there."

    STaSIS Motorsports moves on to round four of the World Challenge series racing next at our home track, Infineon Raceway in Sonoma, California on Sunday June 25, 2006.

    Currently
    3rd in Manufactures
    3rd Chip Herr
    7th Jeff Courtney
    9th Freddy Baker
    1st Rookie of the Year - Jeff Courtney

    Race will be televised on SPEED TV, Saturday, May 27th at 8pm EST and Wednesday May 31st at 12pm.

    Bauer, fantastic news about Stassis! Great job!

    I will make every effort to come up and see you guys in action at Infineon next month. If I make it up, can my family hang in the pits with the team?
