Kittle Motors' Daniel Sheridan is Prepared to Chase USAC/CRA Championship
- 28 Jan 2010
So often our greatest lessons and a renewed sense of enthusiasm spring forth from discontentment as is the case for Sprint Car racer Daniel Sheridan from Torrance, California.
"Last season was a little disappointing for us, we went into the season with high hopes for a championship, since we were coming off one of our best seasons to date ('08)," reflects Sheridan.
"The '09 season started well with a couple West Coast 360 victories and some podium finishes with the USAC/CRA series, but we couldn't get on top of the podium in that series. We had good cars, great sponsors, but luck was not on our side, it seemed as though wherever there were problems (accidents) on the track, we became a magnet to them. We are looking past the '09 season though, and we're excited to get under way in 2010, with hopes of chasing the USAC/CRA Championship, along with numerous West Coast 360 victories."
"During the off season we made numerous changes to our program that I feel will have big impacts going into 2010. We stepped back and looked where we were good and where we had room to improve and I think we have made the necessary changes to put ourselves in contention to win every time we hit the track," explains a motivated Sheridan.
"We have also made a few chassis modifications that I feel we needed to do, along with a few changes to our engine program. We went to a new engine builder at the end of the '09 season that the team has been very happy with."
"The relationship we have established with K&N has been tremendous," say Sheridan. "It's great to be able to show up at a track and represent such an outstanding company as K&N, their products have been around for so long and are very well respected in the motorsports industry. Currently we use K&N air box air filters, air filter oil, air filter cleaner, pre-chargers, crankcase filters and oil filters, all of which we are very pleased with."
For the coming season Sheridan says he has one single goal in mind - to win. "We want to show up at a track and whether it's a 360, or 410 Non-Wing Sprint Car race, we want everyone there to know that we are going to be the car to beat. I would like the USAC/CRA Championship, but winning wherever we run at is definitely the number one goal for me right now."
"I want to thank everyone at K&N for all that you do for me and motorsports in general, it's an honor to represent such a prestigious company."
