Keyed Up Motorsports to skip Charlotte races:

  • Keyed-Up Motorsports owner, Raymond Key, announced that the #90 Chevy will go on hiatus until funding is secured. The team has reduced staff but is still in operation, and will not participate in the All-Star Event weekend or the Coca-Cola 600 event as previously announced. ‘We look forward to returning to the schedule,’ stated owner Raymond Key. ‘At this time we are taking a break from the schedule and working on securing sponsorship for future races.’ Keyed-Up has not participated in an event since the Phoenix race in April, where driver Scott Riggs finished 28th. Riggs maintained a top-25 position with three laps to go when a right front tire blew, causing the final caution of the night. ‘I was very happy with Scotts performance at Phoenix,’ added Key, ‘and I welcome him back to the drivers seat when we return to the schedule.’ The team will continue its efforts in securing a sponsor and will not ‘start and park’ for funding.(Keyed-Up Motorsports)(5-12-2010)
