Curran Takes Whelen Corvette to Mosport Winner's Circle |

BOWMANVILLE, Ont., Canada - (Aug. 23, 2008) The Mosport race airs on SPEED TV, Wed., Aug. 27 at 1pm ET 
If there's any track where Eric Curran should be considered a low-odds favorite to win, it has to be Canada's Mosport International Raceway, an hour east of Toronto.
It took him 21 laps to get into the lead in today's 30-lap SCCA SPEED World Challenge GT on the 2.459-mile circuit, but once there were no competitors to see out his windshield, Eric was able to maintain the lead for the remainder of the race. His biggest competitor today, Randy Pobst, was 1.39 seconds in arrears when the checkered flag flew. |

LAKEVILLE, CT. - (Aug. 16, 2008)
View this wild race on the SPEED Channel replay, Wed., Sept. 3rd at 1pm ET  Eric Curran got one of the breaks almost every racer in America wishes for, and justified the faith in his talent with a sixth place in the NASCAR Camping World East series Mohegan Sun 200 race on the Lime Rock Park road course. "My car got a bit beat up, and I had some learning to do before I realized this racing is a full contact sport, but that sixth place is a memory I'll have forever - every broadside slam, every not-so-subtle tap in the back end, each and every surprise braking maneuver I saw out the windshield," he said, with a broad smile. |

Looks for ‘Home Track Advantage’
LAKEVILLE, CT. - (Aug. 13, 2008)
By Eric Curran
 After racing more than 20 different race cars over the years at Lime Rock Park, which I consider to be my “home track” because I get there from home in an hour and a half, I finally have the opportunity to not only do my first NASCAR race, but do it at the track I know the best. That’ll happen this Saturday when I race the #31 Whelen-Debt Cures Chevrolet Monte Carlo in the NASCAR Camping World East series – the 9th of 15 races this season. Yes friends, it is televised – HD NET live and on a tape delay by SPEED TV. |

8/10/2008 Road America SPEED GT 2nd Place.. |
|
|
|
|
 After the unfortunate frustrations team owner Sonny Whelen and I have gone through this year with the Whelen Motorsports Chevrolet Corvette C6 in the SCCA SPEED GT Championship series, Sunday’s second place finish felt almost as good as a win.The second place, even though the race ended with the field under control of the pace car –was ironically balanced by Sonny’s dropping from the race on the fifth lap with a flat-spotted tire. Sonny drove really well all weekend long, he deserved a good finish, but at least this race showed we’re getting back on track after a difficult start to the season.

6/23/08 Curran Scores 2nd Consecutive KONI Victory |
|
|
|
|
Curran & Holtom deliver Chevrolet and the Cobalt SS another win with the Georgian Bay racing team. 
KONI ST star Eric Curran is thankful to have found winner’s circle for two races in a row, but knows it takes a complete team effort to do so. “Two in a row is never easy, especially in such a competitive class with over 40 cars and such talented drivers in KONI Challenge. The Georgian Bay Chevy Cobalt SS team has been working very hard for the last four years building a strong Cobalt package and their hard work is paying off. We are more prepared than ever in 2008 and desperately want to win a championship. We have come so close in years past and are determined to finish the year with a championship.” |
