2010, One Giant Leap for MoonMan

MT. AUBURN, ILL (December 6, 2010) - As the year comes to an end, much work is yet to be done in preparation for 2011. But to move forward most race teams must reflect on the success and failures of the 2010 season. The MoonMan Organization is one of those teams hoping to build on the success of the past season.

Plagued with bad luck most of the season the final tallies are not really too bad. In 72 starts the 1 team had 28 top 10s, 12 top 5s and a win occurring in mid- October. A very emotional win at Kankakee, Illinois and the first win with the crate motor. After the victory an excited Moon showered the front stretch crowd with dirt while doing donuts.

Motor problems and crashes made a good season become just an okay season, says car owner and sponsor Alana Jones. Moon’s most dramatic wreck took place at Mighty Macon, Illinois. A rollover crash left the team to repair the car but later made it into the feature.

During the off-season Moon returns to his “talk show” on
www.allamericanracetalk.com. The second part of the show season shows a more serious side to Jim Moon. Ask the MoonMan becomes The Real Deal with the MoonMan. The show format will still be answering fan questions but now, different guests will join Moon. Guest this season includes Jody Shannon of the DRC, Sam Drigger from UMP, and Bob Sargent of Track Enterprises. Questions for Moon and his guest can still be sent to all the same places.

Also this off-season the MoonMan Race shop has moved from Indianapolis to Mt. Auburn, Illinois. This move will put the 1 team in a more central location and hopefully make travel distance to more racetracks easier. Watch future press releases for more information.

MoonMan Racing is currently seeking sponsors for the 2011 racing season. Anyone interested in sponsoring the MoonMan Racing Team contact Jim Moon at (317) 777-2222 or email Jim at m00nman1@aol.com.
