At end of day, we just weren\u2019t winning races. We were falling back on speed and the resources we needed to contend for the championship were simply not there. Brad couldn\u2019t commit to getting those resources and Penske is not in a position to help us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Today it was announced that Kligerman had been signed to drive the No. 7 truck for Red Horse Racing. Red Horse Racing (RHR) fields two full time trucks for Timothy Peters and Todd Bodine and has fielded a third truck for John King at times this year.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen you look at truck series teams right now, there\u2019s no doubt Red Horse Racing is definitely one of the top organizations. I\u2019m really excited to make the move here with the support of Tom DeLoach and everyone at this team to see how we can help the team and be successful. It sounds so clich\u00e9 to say I\u2019m excited, but it\u2019s the only word to say because it perfectly describes what I\u2019m looking forward to doing, and that\u2019s winning in these trucks,\u201d Kligerman explained.<\/p>\n<p>In eleven truck series starts, Kligerman has finished inside the top five twice and has seven top ten finishes. Kligerman also finished inside the top ten in two of his three NNS starts.<\/p>\n<p>Keselowski will drive the No. 29 trick when the CWTS visits Michigan.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.redhorseracing.net\/news.cfm\">Red Horse Racing Press Release<\/a><br \/>\nPhoto Source: Jeff Zelevansky\/Getty Images North America<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Parker Kligerman will race next weekend at Michigan International Speedway.
