Crosby to attempt full Busch schedule with GIC

GIC/PSE-93 announced the signing of Kim Crosby to drive the No. 93 race car for a full-schedule of 35 races in the 2005 NASCAR Busch Series.

The team also announced that Boudreaux's Butt Paste, a Louisiana-based product originally created to relieve diaper rash, will continue its association with Crosby as a primary sponsor.

GIC/PSE-93 is a joint venture of Mooresville, NC - based GIC Motorsports and Raleigh, NC, sports and entertainment communication, marketing and sales firm PSE-3.

Crosby, who has previously divided time between the cockpit of race cars and her office as assistant principal of Slidell (La.) Junior High, will become only the third woman in NASCAR Busch Series and NASCAR Nextel Cup history to compete in a full-race schedule.

She shares the full-time designation with Shawna Robinson and Patty Moise, both of whom ran full schedules in the Busch Series in the 1990s.

Crosby ran five NASCAR Busch Series races in 2004, with her best finish a 20th-place lead-lap run in Talladega.

In four career ARCA RE/MAX series races, her finishes included a 21st in Kentucky and a 23rd in Nashville in 2003, as well as starts in Talladega and Daytona.
