June 17, 2010 Lyman, SC-Scotty Cannon and team find themselves again without sponsorship in the middle of the 2010 season. “I got a phone call from Bennie (Alfonso) saying that he would no longer be racing. We had planned to run the Northeast Outlaw Pro Modified Association’s schedule this year said Scotty Cannon.” Cannon Sr. and his son Scott Cannon Jr. had teamed up with Alfonso last year to race in the NEOPMA Series. “We thought we had a secure deal to race again this year. We have been thrashing at the shop to order all of the right parts and pieces. Now we need a deal to use all of this stuff we purchased said Cannon Sr.”
Cannon would like to see a deal where his son can drive and he can tune. “We have all of the things we need to run fast. If we can’t secure sponsorship, we would be willing to tune someone else as well said Scotty Cannon Sr.” The Cannon team has all of the equipment to run and be competitive in any of the many pro modified categories. “I can tune a car to run in any of the current sanctioning bodies that have a Pro Modified Class. We could run the ADRL or NHRA’s events, it doesn’t matter to us said Cannon Sr.”
2007 IHRA World Champion Scott Cannon Jr. would love to return to the driver’s seat. “I have spent a lot of time preparing the shop and car to be competitive this year. I hope soon I can return to competition said Scott Cannon Jr.”
