4-28-10 Top Five for Scribner Motorsports at All American Speedway
Story & Photos By RaceMediaGroup.com

This past weekend Chris Scribner Driver of the Scribner Motorsports/Heritage Hotel Group Chevrolet car grabbed a top five finish, the first for the team. Scribner is in his second year of competition at All American Speedway in the NASCAR Whelen Late Model division and is looking for more top finishes for 2010.

Scribner posted solid results in practices leading up to the day, then put his machine at the top of the charts in qualifying holding fast time till late when Scribner got bumped to third. In the trophy dash Chris started outside front row. Hampered on the outside lane on the start due to oil on the track from the earlier division, Scribner couldn’t hold the position and fell to third in the 4 lap race.

Scribner would start in the ninth position for the 44 lap Main Event for the night. Chris picked off a few positions early before settling in to run consistent laps. Late in the race Scribner found himself in 5th position and held on to the finish. “This is a good finish for the team and all the hard work they have done to help me get the car competitive. We still have a lot of work to do to get the car even better, but this definitely helps the moral of the team and our early point’s position,” Says Scribner. Scribner got moved up an additional position to fourth after a competitor was found non-compliant in post race tech.

9-23-09 Scribner shoots for the next level Loomis driver looks to break through in stock car racing Saturday

Chris Scribner drove the No. 51 Scribner Motorsports Chevrolet for most of the summer at Roseville’s All-American Speedway. On Saturday, he’ll race in the main event in the No. 5 Chevrolet for Jack Sellers Racing.
To draw an analogy from professional baseball, NASCAR’s Camping World Series West is essentially a Class AA league for stock car racers — a league two steps below the big-time.

And just as minor league ballplayers receive late-season promotions to show what they can do against a higher level of competition, Chris Scribner has gotten a similar opportunity on the racetrack.

Scribner will drive in his first Camping World Series race this Saturday when he competes in the Toyota/Copart 150 at Roseville’s All-American Speedway. The 26-year-old Loomis resident will drive the No. 5 Chevrolet for Jack Sellers Racing.

“Jack Sellers is a longtime friend of the family,” said Scribner, who normally competes for his family’s racing team, Scribner Motorsports. “He had an opening for a car (in Saturday’s race), and he gave me an opportunity I couldn’t refuse.”

The opportunity comes at the end of what has been a challenging season on the track for Scribner. The former national champion go-kart racer recently completed his first season of racing Late Models at All-American Speedway. His highest finish was sixth place.

“It’s a big change going from go-karts to running (Late Models),” Scribner said. “With Late Models you struggle with knowledge of the chassis (the body of the car) and how to make it work.”

The challenges Scribner speaks of include dealing with Late Model cars’ suspension — something go-karts don’t have, he said — and the weight transfer of cars set up to exclusively turn left.

Although Scribner has yet to win a Late Model race, he isn’t discouraged. In fact, new challenges are the reason he opted to drive a new class of vehicle.

“I had nothing else to win (in karting),” he said. “I’ve driven in Spain the last two years for Team USA. I’ve won the biggest national series in North America. I’d gone all the way forward, as far as it can go.

“I needed to take the next big step, and big cars are it.”

Scribner will take an even bigger step on Saturday, driving in a race that will be nationally televised on the Speed Channel.

While All-American Speedway is his home track, Scribner doesn’t expect that to be much of an advantage in Saturday’s race.

“I get more laps there than 70 percent of the field,” he said. “At the same time, with the amount of talent in the field, it’s hardly an advantage at all, given all the great racers I’ll be going up against.”

Scribner dreams of driving one day in NASCAR’s elite Sprint Cup Series. That series is two steps above the Camping World Series West, with the Nationwide Series in between.

Making it up the ladder to NASCAR’s top series will require Scribner to find sponsors whose names and influence extend well beyond the Sierra Foothills region and which have an interest in advertising through motorsports. Such sponsorships are necessary for drivers to obtain full-time rides and compete successfully in NASCAR’s feeder circuits.

Saturday night could thus mark the first step Scribner takes toward making his dreams happen.

“This is a big deal for me and my career as far as getting noticed,” Scribner said. “I have a long way to climb, but this is a great opportunity for me.”

Scribner Motorsports Returns to Racing Action for Race #5 at All-American Speedway

 Scribner Motorsports and the #51 Late Model driver, Chris Scribner, will return to racing action this weekend, May 16th, at All-American Speedway in Roseville, Ca. for Round 5 of the NASCAR Whelen All-American Series. The previous race on May 2nd was rained out allowing a much needed break for the team.

Scribner, new on the circuit this year in his rookie season stated, "We have been behind from day one after getting a late start late in the offseason, acquiring our car and equipment just one month before the season began. Many parts were borrowed from fellow competitors to get our season started. The rain-out provided an extra week which gave us time to catch our program up to a competitive level". Chris finished in sixth position his previous race for his best finish thus far. This weekend Chris is looking for his first top five finish.

Scribner brings an impressive resume from the Karting ranks in which he was ranked third in the Nation in 2008 and also represented Kart Team USA in an International Event held in the Alcaniez region of southern Spain last November. Chris is making the jump to the NASCAR Late Model ranks with the help of father, Rick Scribner, (Team Manager) who also raced in the NASCAR ranks on the West Coast. The Scribner Motorsports team is on a quick learning curve as they set the bar high in route to their first top five.

Additional information on Scribner Motorsports 2009 season can be obtained from scribnermotorsports.com. The Team will contest the 2009 All American Speedway NASCAR Late Model 27 race series in conjunction with the WESTCAR series with Team Partners Zamp Helmets, Scribner Plastics, Powertrain Technology, Impact Racing, MSD Ignition, Flowmaster, AD3 Graphics, and KRC Power Steering.

Racing for stardom
 

Del Oro High grad chases his racing dream while mentoring a 15-year-old Placer High freshman girl in the art of go-kart racing.
By Andrew DiLuccia, Journal Motoring Editor
While Loomis is a region renowned for growing delicious fruit and vegetables, the area may soon be known for cultivating racecar drivers, too.

ScribnerMotorSports, based in Loomis, has some high expectations for a pair of racers in 2009 as each looks to fulfill their motor sports dreams. Chris Scribner, a 2001 Del Oro High School graduate and the son of Rick Scribner, a former NASCAR Winston Cup driver, has taken his first full-season step into the NASCAR Whelen All-American Series in Roseville.

Chris Scribner, 26, has gotten to this next level in his racing career by first excelling on the go-kart track, where he’s been a seven-time national kart-racing champion, competing throughout the country and world.

Joining him in the sport of road racing is a young, but talented 15-year-old by the name of Rachel Jean Brigg, a freshman at Placer High School sponsored by ScribnerMotorSports. In just her second year of racing in the International Karting Federation regionals, the Formula One racing fan has had a second-, third- and fifth-place finish, and she’s headed to nationals in July of this year.

Rachel is a part of an effort by ScribnerMotorSports to grow a youth racing program that will produce more high-quality drivers — Rachel is the first to be chosen for the program, and right away, Chris Scribner knew he had a racer and an ambassador for the sport.

“She got in the go-kart and controlled it right out of the box,” he said. “That sense of aggressiveness and the ability to speak (well) … that’s what I wanted to work with. I look for that in all the kids I want to develop.”

While Scribner got his racing bug very early — his mother was pitting for his father while pregnant with him — Rachel came to the sport a little a later in life. In fact, it was just a few years ago. After watching Formula One racing with her father, Andrew, they decided to go out to a go-kart track one day near Folsom.

After watching the races and enjoying them, Rachel then got behind the wheel, and it was love at first drive.

“As soon I got in the car, I knew this is what I wanted to do,” she said.

For Chris Scribner, it was growing up around auto racing that helped spur his desire for the sport, which has also seen him drive in the Grand Am and Rolex series.

Along with working on his racecar career, Scribner promotes auto sports Web sites and works in the world of go-kart racing, offering lessons and working with drivers. His family’s company, Scribner Plastics, based in Rancho Cordova, also is involved in the racing world, providing plastics for the sport.

Even as Chris Scribner focuses on his move up the racing ladder, he spends much of his free time working with Rachel — who is also sponsored by Leading Edge and Intrepid — as he helps her become a better kart driver. One of the key parts of his tutelage has been teaching Rachel how to feel out the vehicle and understand it.

“(We’re) basically going over setup, how she needs to set up to react and hitting the right lines,” he said. “You have to be able to feel what you’re doing. Her sense of what the racecar is doing is important. That’s mainly what we like to work on.”

And since she’s been able to do that, Rachel has seen her lap time and skills improve.

“Chris is like my best friend, he’s like an older brother to me,” Rachel said. “When I first started with him, from then until now, I’ve improved my lap time by like three seconds. We’re a good team and we work well together.”

Rachel hopes this duo will stick together as each progresses in their racing careers and helps put ScribnerMotorSports and Loomis on the auto sports map.
