NASCAR team Keyed-Up Motorsports is scaling back its 2010 schedule.
The team, which runs the No. 90 Chevrolet Impala driven by
Scott Riggs in the Sprint Car Series, will not race at Texas next
week, and has yet to decide which other races it will contest.
Team owner Raymond Key said the team will continue to look
for a sponsor. In the meantime, it has reduced its number of crew
members, with Doug Richert remaining as crew chief.
“Doug has been a pivotal part of this
organization,” Key said in a statement.
Key said the team will concentrate its efforts on the races
its enters, and would not “start and park” to attract
funding.
He said the reduced schedule would allow the team to continue
operations, and “make us stronger, when we return to the
track.”
Keyed-Up is in its first NASCAR season. It received engines,
and technical and engineering support from Key Motorsports, run by
Key’s older brother, Curtis.
