Midwest Connection - Open wheeler Clay Klepper

Midwest Connection · 9/17/08, 8:04 AM

date? - I took this photo of Clay Klepper at IRP presently the O'Reilly Raceway Park in Indiana from a few years back. :Steer

Other than the fact that I took this photo, I have little info on Clay Klepper.

Does any IOW messageboard reader have any current info on Clay Klepper?
Thanks

Have a good day...see you at the races :thumb

Congratulations... This is your lucky day... Clay Klepper... my less famous brother is at my house right now.

Clay currently lives in Danville, IN has a full time job as a saleman and is owner of CK Designs (www.ckdesignsinc.com). He is married to Jamie with two kids (who like me more) and plans on making a return at the 2009 Chili Bowl.

He has had a few offers to drive from time to time but has declined due to his longtime crew chief (me) being unable to attend.

He helped me out with a live USAC internet video stream from ORP earlier this year and hopes to do a few more when time allows.

Joe is standing next to the car checking things out. Josh could tell some pretty good stories about time on the road with Joe. He is a good guy that loves racing. :respect:
