What an inspiration that man is Congrats Robert your one of a kind!

Way to go Robert ! This man not only taught us that you can dream , but you can attain those dreams with hard work & determination. And to top it off he is just a helluva guy . Thank you Robert for the life lesson.

Got to meet Robert at the smackdown. Most down to earth guy. Was a real pleasure talking to him. Hope we see him again next year!!!

Saw him here in Florida at the beginning of the year congrats on finishing the season also a shout out to BC for helping him out in Florida both good guys

A great accomplishment. He should be very proud!

I was hoping that the Comet would get a invite to Indy since he also has a midget

I was stumbling around the pits at Ocala last winter when I almost walked into a pickup and open trailer sitting in a dark area, all alone. I thought it had been parked there to keep it out of the way but then I realized there was a guy in a firesuit sitting on the back of the trailer. Later I saw BC and a couple of others helping him get strapped in and pushed out for hots. I actually thought it must be a local getting a little experience with USAC.
After getting back home in the Spring I started seeing him occasionally at USAC shows. You gotta give him a bunch of credit for what he does. Probably not going to be a big winner at the payoff window, but I'll bet he is a HUGE winner in his heart. He has my admiration.
