Krohn Racing Ready for Round Three at Homestead

Krohn Racing, who currently sits third in the Rolex Grand-Am Series Daytona Prototype points, is anxious to hit the track at Homestead-Miami Speedway for the Linder Industrial Komatsu Grand Prix of Miami on Saturday, March 24, 2007.

Colin Braun, who captured the pole in Mexico in the No. 75 Krohn Racing Pontiac Riley, and teammate Max Papis, finished second in the Mexico City Grand Prix race last month. The duo is third in the points championship after two of 14 races this season.

Braun and Papis will team for the 400 kilometer/100-lap/2-1/2 hour sprint race again in the No. 75 Krohn Racing Pontiac Riley. Team owner/driver Tracy Krohn and teammate Nic Jonsson will drive the No. 76 Krohn Racing Pontiac Riley.

Krohn, Jonsson and Braun come to Miami from the 12 Hours of Sebring race where they finished ninth in the GT2 class in the Krohn/Risi Ferrari 430GT. Papis won the GT1 class with the Corvette Racing team at Sebring.

Colin Braun, driver, No. 75 Krohn Racing Pontiac Riley:

"Going back to Homestead is great. I've driven there a lot before and I know the Daytona Prototype car really well. I'm looking forward to going and driving as hard as I can. I know Max is ready to go and the guys have been working really hard in the shop in preparation. I think it will be a good race."

Jeff Hazell, Krohn Racing Team Manager:

"Last year we were struggling at this event. Colin was prevented from driving, and we failed dismally to achieve a good set up. We missed last winter's test here to concentrate on thorough preparation. We need points to recover from the 'Daytona-Harness-Handicap' so we have a lot to achieve this weekend."
