Monster Energy Toyota Potawatomi Team of Greaves-McGrath Show Speed in Crandon at TORC Series’ Midwest Debut in Rounds 5 and 6

Crandon, WI (June 23, 2009)-The Monster Energy Toyota team of Johnny Greaves and Jeremy McGrath rolled into the famous Crandon International Raceway to greet over 24,000 fans for the traditional "Brush Run" hosted by Forest County Potawatomi. While Greaves and McGrath struggled with some mechanical failures and race contact damage, both Jeremy McGrath and Johnny Greaves left on Sunday feeling as if they may have figured out some things about their set-up that will propel them back to the top for the rest of the year. Greaves salvaged a 4th place finish in round 5 on Saturday while McGrath had a cut tire as he was positioned for a win but was still able to pull-off a 4th place finish and tied for 3rd in the points. Round 6 was even tougher for both-Greaves broke had a ring and pinion.

"It was great to be back on a big track here in Crandon and see how our Toyota's were going to need to be set-up for the 'Midwest Swing'," stated Greaves. Rain kept us from doing as much testing and it really would have helped us. All in all though we just had some mechanical issues or we would have stayed on the podium. We feel we are going to run strong from here on out and discovered a few things that are going to pay off down the road."
