Revolution Motorsports St. Petersburg Preview
It's "lock and load" as Revolution Motorsports seeks dual title season
DETROIT February 20, 2003 Revolution Motorsports rolls into St.
Petersburg Florida this week focused on two Trans-Am Series for the
BFGoodrich Tires Cup titles. Stu Hayner will pilot the #2 Trenton Forging
Corvette looking to capture is first drivers' Championship, while teammate,
Bobby Sak takes over the seat of the #10 Corvette in search of the Rookie
of the Year title.
"The team has done an amazing job during the off-season," commented team
owner, Don Sak. "The dedication and hard work really showed during a recent
test session. After working day and night getting ready, the crew showed up
trackside at 7am ready to go testing. If effort equals results, look for
the Revolution cars to show the way around all season," said Sak.
"I'm really happy with the handling changes we've made," added Stu Hayner.
"And the horsepower is very strong. If we can repeat our results on
temporary circuits and capitalize on the changes we've made, we're going to
be pretty tough to beat in St. Pete."
"We know we have a challenge ahead of us just keeping up the chemistry of
last year's effort," added Hayner. "We've made a few changes in personnel
during the off season and it seems like the fit is great. At our recent
test session everyone was on the same page. We really feel equipped to get
this done!
Bobby Sak was equally enthusiastic.
"I've got my work cut out for me," Sak acknowledged. "This is a lot of car
and a whole lot of power. I plan on minding my manners and making a steady
run for the season. I'm trying to focus on what I need to do instead of
what I'd like to do. I've spent the off season trying to get my mind set
right and on paying attention to my dad, Stu and our crew chief, Shane
Duhaime."
"These guys have all been down this road," Bobby continued. "It's up to me
to listen and learn. I'm in this for the long haul. I don't need to prove
myself in the first corner or the first race. I know what to do. I'm going
to concentrate on building."
