Dario franchitti
 

Watching the Indy car qualifying heat races and robin miller just interviewed Dario, Dario said his lifelong dream is to be in a sprint car on the cushion at bloomington! How cool is that? I think it's really cool how all these Indy car guys are starting to recognize that dirt is where the best racing is at!

I'm pretty sure Robin said that, not Dario. Robin said the same thing about Viso at Texas. I took both of these lines as a joke. If it's not a joke, that sure would be interesting. The only current IndyCar driver I've actually heard express interest in driving a sprint car was J.R. Hildebrand.

I took it as Robin Miller trying to be funny too.

Ej viso has expressed interest in it from what I've heard. I still think its neat that our tracks in Indiana are talked about on national TV

E. J. said just now in an interview that he had some off weeks coming up and was definitely interested. Said he knows about the power to weight ration and that was what interested him. He honestly sounded like he wants to try one.

To me it seemed like runnin the sprintcar and "pullin wheelies" is all he really wanted to talk about in the interview...and he really had the "kid on christmas morning" look in his eyes when he was talking about it....I just think that's cool as crap.
