Doug is truely one of the best open wheel asphalt drivers i have had the pleasure of watching!-Tom Bliss:thumb:

Remember Doug is the guy who caused the yellow at Daytona that gave Richard Petty his big win in front of the President. Always a tough racer, too bad his NASCAR adventure didn't work out for him. Maybe Doug can finish out his career with a Little 500 win.

Thanks for the link. I've always considered Heveron a "racer". Seems like he would race anything.:checkered:

Question for Patti (Indybound) or whoever. Wasn't Doug known, early in his career, as "the young one"?

Yep when he was racing supermods at Oswego early in his career.
