STEVE SCHARR

Former Spencer Speedway Champion Steve Scharr has a car entered in the Richmond Cup event this weekend. I ran into Steve over the Christmas holidays and he told me this was his life-long dream. He told me he already had a car and how hard it was to try to put together something that might be good enough to qualify for one of these shows. I guess the original motor they bought wasn't strong enough to get the job done and he was looking for another. I have to say I had my doubts, but there he is on the entry blank. Mark Green is listed as the driver.

GIVE 'EM HE11 STEVE and MARK!

?New Sprint Cup team to debut at RIR: Mark Green is entered in the #0 Blue Ox Toyota to be fielded by the SS Motorsports team. Not not is known about the team, but it is bases in Kannapolis, NC and per it's facebook page which has been active since early 2011: "We will be using a combination of knowledge and experience to build a current COT cup car using used parts and chassis. We currently own several COT chassis and most of the necessary parts to build a complete car. Our short term goal is a test planned for early this summer." The page shows some images of the car, which included Toyota's from JTG Daughtery Motorsports and Michael Waltrip Racing. No idea of further plans for the team are posted. Steve Leicht, currently driving the #33 Chevy, tested the car in May 2012 at Caraway Speedway. No crew chief is currently listed for the team.(9-4-2012)

Thank you for everyones words of support.Thank you Brad Smales for your help.There have been a lot of people who have helped.Thank you all.We went to Richmond to learn.I could write a book about what went on.The car is much better than it showed.Our setup was no where near what we wanted but were forced into changes mostly due to our inexperience with procedures.We look forward to trying again as soon as possible with a much better insight as to what to expect.Steve Scharr
