J.J. Yeley has announced his plans for four out of the five remaining races in the 2010 season as well as his intensions for 2011. Yeley will once again be behind the wheel of the #81 car for Whitney Motorsports at Martinsville (Dodge) and Phoenix (Chevy) and will pilot the #36 Tommy Baldwin Chevy at Texas and Homestead. That makes Talladega the only event left in 2010 where Yeley does not have a ride, something he is hoping to change should the right opportunity arise. This weekend at Martinsville will mark the final scheduled event for Yeley in a Whitney Motorsports Dodge as the team prepares to switch to Chevys. The potential that the change in manufacturer brings is exciting for Yeley as he returns to his hometown track in the Arizona desert. “I sat in the Phoenix Chevy this week. It’s ready to roll and I’m looking forward to going to my hometown track with good equipment and good horsepower.” As for 2011, Yeley said, “I’m hoping that I’ve proven that I can go out there and out-qualify some teams that have big funding with cars that at times, were viewed by some as obsolete. We’ve gone out there and run really good lap times. I’d love the opportunity to get back out there and race full-time and drive the complete race distance (see full PR at jjyeley.com)(10-22-2010)
