Krohn Racing joins the other Grand-Am Rolex Sports Car Series' teams in Millville, New Jersey this week for the penultimate race of the 2008 Grand-Am season, the inaugural Supercar Life 250 at New Jersey Motorsports Park.

Round 13 of 14 will feature Krohn Racing team owner/driver Tracy W. Krohn paired with veteran sports car driver Eric van de Poele in the No. 75 Krohn Racing Pontiac Lola. The No. 76 Krohn Racing Pontiac Lola combines Nic Jönsson and former Formula One ace Ricardo Zonta piloting the 500-horsepower Pontiac-powered Proto-Auto Lola.

Houston, TX - August 24, 2008.  The American Le Mans Series GT2 Championship-winning Risi Competizione team will extend its racing relationship with Krohn Racing for the final two rounds of the 2008 season. 

The two teams have joined together for endurance races both in the United States and at Le Mans over the last two years with great success.  The highlights have been wins for Risi at Le Mans this year and Sebring in 2007, with the Krohn green car taking a superb second place at Le Mans 14 months ago and an equally strong podium finish at the 12 Hours of Sebring at the start of the 2008 season in March.

The Krohn Racing two-car team captured a fifth and 11th place finish in Saturday’s Armed Forces 250 race at Infineon Raceway Sears Point. It was Round 12 of 14 on the 2008 Grand-Am Rolex Sports Car Series and a Prototype only format event of 102 laps.

Nic Jönsson and Ricardo Zonta finished fifth and had to move up from 17th, after starting their No. 76 Krohn Racing Pontiac Lola from the last place on the grid when their qualifying time was disallowed by officials when the car was declared too low. It was their fifth Top Five finish of the season, including two podium placements. Tracy Krohn and Eric van de Poele drove their No. 75 Krohn Racing Pontiac Lola to an 11th place finish, starting from 14th on the grid.

The No. 10 SunTrust Pontiac Dallara of Max Angelelli and Michael Valiante was a new Grand-Am winner this year in today’s race which only saw one caution period.

Grand-Am Rolex Sports Car Series teams head west this week for the Armed Forces 250 at Infineon Raceway Sears Point on Saturday, August 23, 2008, held in the beautiful wine country of Sonoma, California.

Krohn Racing drivers have continued to improve their development program with the new Proto-Auto Lola. They are making progress and a victory is, undoubtedly, on the horizon. Round 12 (Prototype only cars) at Sears Point will feature Krohn Racing owner/driver Tracy Krohn and teammate Eric van de Poele in the No. 75 Krohn Racing Pontiac Lola. The No. 76 Krohn Racing Pontiac Lola teams Krohn regular Nic Jönsson with Ricardo Zonta. The duo has two podium finishes so far this season.

Jönsson and Zonta return to the track where they first paired in August 2007, as Zonta stepped in for Colin Braun, who had a one-race suspension from Grand-Am. Since Zonta has spent much of the year learning new race tracks, the Krohn team hopes his previous appearance at Infineon will prove beneficial and good results will follow.

Krohn Racing's Ricardo Zonta and Nic Jönsson captured a Top Five finish in Friday's Crown Royal 200 at the Glen race at Watkins Glen International, round 11 of 14 of the 2008 Grand-Am Rolex Sports Car Series schedule.

Eric van de Poele clipped the wall and suffered enough damage to retire the No. 75 Krohn Racing Pontiac Lola he shares with team owner/driver Tracy Krohn early. The car was retired on Lap 53 of 82 in the two-hour sprint race.

Brian Frisselle and Mark Wilkins celebrated back-to-victories in their No. 61 AIM Autosport Ford Riley after collecting their first Grand-Am victory last week in Montreal.
