Mitchell also ran as high as third in a "Montpelier Rules" race at Kokomo late in the year, driving an Ecotec I don't believe he'd ever sat in before. I think he ended up fifth overall and the highest non-National-engined car but he was harassing the heck out of the top 2 for a while. This was with an engine with a stock single throttle body manifold, that I'd never really seen do much in the hands of other drivers, more proof that skill and setup have as much to do with success as anything else. Mitchell's a heck of a shoe.
