After deliberating for more than a week, Kenny Koretsky decided Tuesday to put Richie Stevens in the seat of his Nitro Fish/Indicom Electric Pro Stock Pontiac GXP for this weekend’s Summit Racing Equipment Nationals in Norwalk, Ohio,
 
“It’s no secret I’ve been thinking about doing something like this since my crash at Topeka (May 31),” said the fan friendly Koretsky.  “Well, now it’s official.  Richie was in Joliet (Ill.) testing with Eddie (Guarnaccia, team crew chief) and getting comfortable in the car.  If everything goes well – and it should – Richie will be racing at Norwalk.” After deliberating for more than a week, Kenny Koretsky decided Tuesday to put Richie Stevens in the seat of his Nitro Fish/Indicom Electric Pro Stock Pontiac GXP for this weekend’s Summit Racing Equipment Nationals in Norwalk, Ohio,

The race car suffered serious front-end damaged in the accident at Topeka, but builder Jerry Bickel replaced the front end in time for testing.
 
“Right now, I’m still exploring my options,” said Koretsky, who made his first NHRA Pro Stock start in 1987.  “After Scott Kalitta’s tragic accident Saturday, I’m not sure what I want to do.”
 
Koretsky plans to be at Norwalk to watch Stevens and reigning Pro Stock Motorcycle champion Matt Smith, rider of the Nitro Fish Buell motorcycle.
