"I just want to
race." That's Jeremy Miller's attitude. "If it's a
Hooters Pro Cup car, a late model at Hawkeye Downs or a dirt
modified on the USMTS series, whatever."
However, he had to make a tough
decision about the future of his racing career after the Aaron's
212 at Indianapolis. "We just can't do this out of pocket
anymore," Jeremy said. "I've been fortunate enough to run
three partial seasons in the Hooters Pro Cup series and it's been
great. And my sponsors over the years have been great, too.
We just haven't been able to pick up enough to run a full
schedule. I want nothing more than to be able to get a ride
to keep me racing."
Jeremy definitely has been very
fortunate. That 14 year old kid strapping into his first
stock car in Eldon, IA would have never |
| dreamed that one day
he would be traveling with a national stock car tour. But he
has done just that, even while having little to no budget to work
with. Jeremy's goal was to race on his winnings and he has
come as close to doing that as possible. |
"In my opinion he's been able to do the most with the least,"
commented Jon Miller about Jeremy's racing career. "We've
always been in the situation of trying to beat the guys that had
way more money. And he'll try as hard as he can to find a
way to do it. He's had a lot of very respectable finishes in
his USAR career so far. He went out on a limb and put
everything he had into racing the Hooters Pro Cup series.
You have to respect that desire."
That's not too bad considering only
three people work on the car who all have full time jobs.
But, for now, Jeremy has to look ahead to what his racing future
holds. His family based team continues to look for
sponsorship that would carry the |

forward. "If a good sponsorship came, we could get going
again. But right now we're at the point where we have to try
selling the whole operation," Jeremy said.
Jeremy definitely wants to continue
to be out there racing. He is very easy on equipment and
knows how to keep his cool in the race car. Years of racing
experience and knowledge of race cars makes him a very smart
addition to any race team in any series.
