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!
