Not going to deify him and not going to take away his accomplishments but the man always had a edge. They were running Hav-a-tampa the first year I saw him 89-90ish and he had carbon fiber brakes which cost about ten grand a wheel at the time (Now they're common) and could drive into the corners easily a hundred ft or more deeper than everyone else. After he won so much the first couple seasons he was always testing. seeking the most HP etc.
I guess you could say he took LM's to the next level. But in a way, ThAT's not good. Used to be several tracks around here have full fields of LM's on a saturday night, Now you can't get a full field for one race unless 20k is on top.
IDK, He was awesome in awesome cars. made a fortune and you can't deny that.
RIP Scott.
