Well tell you what, a two man sprinter huh ? No offense to anyone but the first time in a sprinter and someone else is driving ? @&^$ that #^%* .

After reading this post I had to share this.
Back in the early 70s Tomas' dad Jody was over here driving in the Formula 5000 series before he went to Formula One. I was shooting for NSSN at a race at Michigan Int'l and he was leading by a pretty wide margin. I happened to be with the late Ken Coles when he said " It looks like he's driving a sprinter, he's sideways dirt trackin thru the corners". We both agreed we would like to see him in a sprint car just once. I guess the apple didn't fall too far from the tree in this case.

Maybe he will just start up a USAC team.
