I would suggest maybe running a driver such as Geoff Kaiser. DonMoore10 used him indoors at Fort Wayne and loved his driving and set up skills.

I agree, Geoff did well and has some pavement sprint car experience.
Others have mentioned Dakoda and Mario- both are young talents for sure; but I believe they have their own pavement cars.
My short list:
Sam Brooks:moon:

Seriously though;
Experienced drivers:
Mat Neely
Mark Jessup
Ron Gregory
Brian Gerster

Young drivers:
Kyle Robbins
Kenny Biro
Jimmy Light
Blake Fitzpatrick
Thomas Messeraull
Jordan Pennington

I have forgotten a few but my short list is getting pretty long:doh:

This is a quality race team with a quality owner.I am sure they will put someone in the car that can win. The name Jessup or Gregory both sound like winners. A couple of the guys mentioned reminded me of that show "Make Me Laugh"!

Maybe I'd better step up my exercise regimen. Or, just start one.:rolling:

Is there such a thing as a Tequila diet?

Are you kidding me Jimmy Light? This guy ran good at the Burg only why does he deserve this ride? Heck I hear he can't run a drill without hurting himself?

Mike should just drive the car himself!!!

It was a few years ago but if I remember correctly, there was once a test session (cant remember where, maybe Anderson) where Mike jumped in the car and gassed it up pretty good!!!
