This is unexpected. I didn’t realize at the beginning of
this week that by the end of it, I’d be in Indianapolis. But here I am.
I didn’t even realize that Jack (that’s my boss at
Sandham Swift Racing, Jack Sandham) had planned to be here to “check things
out,” as he put it. But he called me Monday and told me to get my butt on a
plane Tuesday, so here I am.
Turns out, Jack’s always dreamed of bringing a team to the Indy
500, so he’s at the Racing Capital of the World to talk to Series officials and
teams. I’m here because “I have buzz” (Jack’s words). I asked him if that meant
I’d be part of a team he brought to the Indy 500, and he told me anything could
happen.
But I’m also here because of Corvette. You see, the new
(gorgeous!) 2014 Corvette Stingray is the official pace car this year, in honor
of the car’s 60th anniversary. And, well, let’s just say that there will
be a lot of other Corvettes putting
rubber down on that oval this weekend and next—and I’m not supposed to say much
more….
Just keep your eyes peeled at the track this weekend. You
never know who you might see!
