Brian Keselowski plans Daytona 500 then…:

#92-Brian Keselowski, is hoping to run the full Sprint Cup schedule in 2011. I planned on running a full schedule, but so far, we havent been able to put it all together. Were planning on doing Daytona, and were going to wait and see from there. We might wait until after the first part of the season gets over with, said Keselowski. Its going to depend on our money, and how much sponsorship we might be able to draw. Keselowski says that with the current rules that the Nationwide Series came out with, his team could not race this upcoming season. We decided that it wasnt much more expensive to run the Sprint Cup Series. If were going to spend that kind of money, we might as well go Cup racing. Its not going to be easy, but we want to race. With plans on going racing, a second car from K-Automotive Motorsports going to the track could be likely for the team. Im not going to make an everyday deal out of that. Its not going to happen for a while. For this second car, Dennis Setzer might try at a few races. Dennis is good at places like Martinsville, and it will be smart to bring someone that knows their way around the place. With sponsorship looking questionable, K-Automotive and Brian Keselowski will try to keep starting and parking to a minimum. Keselowski says that there are some small things lined up for Speedweeks, and even has a chance with another driver to run the Budweiser Shootout, but there is no primary sponsorship lined up for his car.(TheRacingExperts.com)(2-8-2011)
