"I'm looking forward to racing at Chicagoland," Crews said. "The races there are always close, and I hope I can stay out of trouble and be there at the finish."
Team owner McMillan was team manager and engineer for Keith Duesenberg Racing in 2003 and 2004, before running the car driven by Marco Andretti under the Andretti Green Racing banner in 2005.
"We're looking forward to going to Chicagoland with CR," the Kiwi said, "He's new at the ovals, but we're hoping that he can learn from us and we can have a good finish."
Crews' Dallara will carry signage for Racersites.com, Magnus Energy Marketing, Zoom, Sign-a-Rama North Dallas and the CR Crews Capital Investment Group.
