Lake Bluff, IL - Gillig and Gillig Back together again.
Bob Gillig will take over crew chief duties on the ASSC Racing Ford Mustang driven by son Tony Gillig. Tony finished 10 th in the 2004 Hooters IHRA Sunoco Pro Stock point standings. Team owner Tim Huston was happy with his first season in IHRA Pro Stock competition but admits something was missing. “We feel we have the tools and equipment to be a contender for the 2005 Torco Race Fuels Pro Stock Championship. Since Bob and Tony will be back together we feel we have the 1-2 punch in the driving and tuning departments to be a serious contender for the title this season.”

Gillig was in Gainesville in mid January and had a very successful test session. “We were testing the triple disc clutch along with a ton of other things we didn't have a chance to at the end of last season. The car is working really well and didn't abort one run in the 4 days we tested. We ran a 6.42 at 216.91 and considering the conditions we feel we are in good shape. The test session was great and I couldn't be happier having my dad back with me again, I feel like a new driver and I am on a mission,” said Gillig.

Team ASSC will have the same team intact from last year, Clutch man Mario Torres will be back and Mike Vinezeano Sr. will also assist the team with Transportation duties as well as track side assistance in the pits.

The ASSC Racing Ford Mustang will be testing in Houston , Texas one last time prior to the 4 th Annual Amalie Oil Texas Nationals, in San Antonio .
