It's one thing to be fast when you're the only car on the track for just a few laps. Put 21 more out there and push as hard as they do for 60 laps and I'll be impressed.
I'm not saying he couldn't do it, but just and I am sure that JPM or Shumacher could run up fron in a sprint car (winged on nonwinged), it's going to take time.
Look at JPM at the prelude, he had never even SEEN a dirt track OR a late model until he set foot on Eldora. But he took to it like a duck to water.
