In the search for the perfect person to serve as its new Vice-President of Promoter Relations, the Champ Car World Series found the ideal candidate sitting right in the middle of its own racing schedule source: champcarworldseries.com Thursday, the Champ Car World Series announced that former Milwaukee Mile Vice President and General Manager Mark Perrone would join the series as the new Vice-President of Promoter Services, tasked with ensuring that Champ Car promoters receive top-shelf support from the series, geared towards producing the highest quality racing events for its fans. Perrone announced in April that he was stepping down as the VP and General Manager at the Mile due to family considerations and is scheduled to join the staff at Champ Car, effective May 9th. "I have mixed emotions about leaving the Mile, because the Mile has experienced a true renaissance both physically and operationally in the last three years. I am most proud of the fact that we have built a great staff that has accomplished a lot in a relatively short period of time," said Perrone. "But I believe in Champ Car, I believe in the future vision established by the owners and I certainly believe in the people within the company. I think that the experience I bring as a promoter, and the relationships I have with many of the Champ Car promoters, will help all of us grow our respective business' to new levels of profitability." Perrone, a graduate of the University of Denver where he was a two-sport athlete, will join the Promoter Relations staff headed up by Executive Vice-President of Development, Government Affairs and Planning Joe Chrnelich, who himself came to Champ Car after a number of years as the CEO of the Wisconsin State Fair Park and the Milwaukee Mile.
