The 48th running of the Johhny Key Classic………the competitors, how will they fair???
Brent Kaeding leads the way with the point lead and three consecutinve Wright One 360 series wins…….Will this Hall of famer add another Key Classic to his prestigious list of victories????
Brad Furr enters the Key with a strong series of second place finishes. Will the 48th running be the night that Furr etches his name in the history books??? Season long performances suggest he'll be a factor.
Bud Kaeding looks to add another Key classic to his list of accomplishments. As a rookie Bud won this race and has been lightning fast in each Wright One 360 event thus far…..this week should be no different.
Evan Suggs has proved that he can run with the best of em', notching himself a series win earlier in the year and staying steady all season long. This young gun would surely like to be the next Johnny key Classic winner.
Jason Statler returns as the reigning champion of the Key race, and no doubt he would like to add his name to the "back to back" list.
Tommy Tarlton had some early season momentum going……can the Tarlton & Sons #21 find some magic Key night
Craig Stidham is always quick at Ocean, and a former trophy cup winner he knows how to handle the big shows.
"Cowboy " Craig Smith looks to add another Key race to his resume, and a recent top five finish says the Cowboy may be ready to ride.
Andy Ferris has had a consistent season and with a little lady luck could find himself near the front at the checkers
Jerry Bonnema has been fast most nights but had some tough luck on occasion, is this the night it all goes right
Ricky Wright Jr. has shown some steady improvements this year, notching a top five finish in series action earlier in the year. Can Ricky add a Key Classic trophy to the list of accomplishments for the #35 car
Stephen Allard, a proven champion has had an up and down season………but always looms as a threat. Keep your eye on the #86 car
Justin Sanders and Matt Sargent, two rookie contenders looking to get in the show should no doubt be exciting. Both of these young lions have been making strides throughout the year. While Sanders looks to make a name for himself, Sargent is looking to etch his own name next to the like of his grandfather Marshall and Uncle Mike; both former Key Winners.
Kurt Nelson is always on the gas and is a veteran racer that knows what the Key race is all about Can Kurt bring the #72 car to victory lane
Jason Newton, the 2007 Ocean rookie of the year, had a good run during the last series event and looks to build on that performance going in to the Key race. Can the #31 team find some magic that might give them their season best performance???
Ronnie Day is pre-qualified but is there a ride available???? Guess we'll have to wait and see…..Day is an experienced veteran that will prove to be solid if he lands a ride.
Keith Day is always looming with familiar #22, can he bring home a Key Classic victory?? Will he have to outduel his brother for a shot at the win????
Myles Bishop is another young gun looking to find his way into his first ever Key race.
Burt Foland Jr. enters the Key race with hopes of adding his name to the long list of winners, can he duplicate one of his fathers accomplishments??? Burt Sr. is a multiple time Key winner.
Anthony Simone has been exciting at Ocean this year, can he get the #10 car into the Key??? You can guarantee it'll be an exciting show one way or another as long as Anthony is on the gas.
Brent Bjork has gained some valuable experience with the GSC series this year. Can Bjork put it all together for a good night at the Key???
Ken Fredenburg looks to put his Procision #23 into the Key this year. With some help from Joel Kaeding turning the wrenches, he should be going forward
Wayne Katen in the familiar #99 should be on the gas and looking to put his sprinter in the show. Wayne is a veteran of the port and knows what it means to run the Key.
Tyler Walker, no doubt a threat if he shows, is rumored to be in the Kasey Kahne sprinter this weekend. Too bad if he doesn't make it……..he's always exciting to watch.
Good luck to all the Key competitors, it should truly be another great race.
