For winged guys, I would have to agree. For those of us that don't pay much attention to the mini and micro sprints, he kind of came out of nowhere. I first saw him at HRP this spring during a playday. I would also have to give kudos to a couple of other ASCS Gulf South drivers, Trey Robb and Jerry Bell. The took off the wings and ran the full Sprint Week. Not an easy task at all.
