AMERICAN LE MANS SERIES REACTS TO KROHN-BARBOUR RACING ANNOUNCEMENT
(NOTE TO EDITORS: It was announced earlier today by Krohn-Barbour Racing that the team would discontinue its Lamborghini program in the American Le Mans Series effective immediately)
QUOTE FROM SCOTT ATHERTON
President & CEO, American Le Mans Series
"The Lamborghinis have been some of the most popular cars that have ever competed in the American Le Mans Series and were very well-received by fans everywhere they went this season. We are very sad to see the Lamborghini program discontinued.
"Tracy Krohn, Dick Barbour and everyone at Krohn-Barbour Racing have put forth a very strong and professional effort with these cars and we certainly applaud their work ethic and presentation. Tracy has kept us in the loop every step of the way and it is most unfortunate that this program could not reach its full potential.
"We know that Krohn-Barbour Racing is looking at other options in the American Le Mans Series and would welcome this outstanding group back with us next season."
