Lally added to lineup

For Immediate Release: 2/27/02

G&W Motorsports held a driver audition and test session of the #07 Momentum Motorcars BMW-powered Picchio prototype sponsored by USI and the Valley Group last week.  On-site at Virginia International Raceway, the team's testing time came to an abrupt end when an early morning accident on Thursday sent Andy Lally off-track in turn one.  "Fortunately Lally escaped unharmed from the testing accident and the G&W crew has hastily repaired the car to make the Homestead event,"  commented team owner Cole Scrogham, on his way to Miami.
They are looking forward to promising results to come with the addition of standout Lally as the third driver in the Picchio lineup.  "I am thrilled to be added to the G&W driver lineup!  I was very impressed with the driveability and grip that the car was able to make at VIR last week. We are still in the very early stages of development with the car and although it will be a tough battle this year the car is showing a lot of promise from the get go and I know these guys can make the most of it," responded Lally.
He will join the driving ranks of Darren Law and Armando Trentini in the SRP2 class at the Homestead-Miami Nextel 250 on Saturday, March 2.
