York & Rowen Combine for Top-25 Finish in Utah
Kevin at speed through Miller Motorsport Park's "Bad Attitude" corner.
Kevin York and his co-driver for the Miller Motorsport Park round of the Grand Am KONI Challenge Series finished in twenty-third position today.
James Rowen qualified the car in the thirty-second spot on the grid and drove just over one hour from the start of the race.
With tutelage and coaching from Kevin, James made great strides during the course of the weekend, notching his best time of the weekend during the race in the #73 GoEnzo.com Acura RSX-S. "I had a great time and learned a lot," remarked Rowen of his first pro event. Rowen's sponsors were impressed with the Miller facility, the level of competition in Grand-Am's KONI series, and the professionalism of the Compass360 Racing team. "We'll be back for more races next year," promised Rowen.
During a green-flag pit stop and driver change, York got in and drove the #73 home to a solid, if not respectable, finish.
Both York and Rowen paid special thanks to Joe Cooley of Circuit Motorsports for this event.

Speaking Freely from Miller Motorsports Park
"Hello, this is Kevin calling from Miller Motorsports Park in Tooele, Utah.
Earlier today my co-driver for this event, James Rowen, drove the GoEnzo.com C360R Acura RSX in qualifying for the KONI Challenge Series race being held Sunday.
It will be the first time this season that I've driven the second stint - and not qualified the car and driven first.
We are looking forward to the race!
Additionally the race will be covered by Speed TV, the date of air will be October 12th.
Check back here for more details.
Cheers. Kevin"
