Team Revolution driver, Bobby Sak [#10 Revolution Motorsports Corvette]
was very excited about the PEE Channel package.
“It’s always fun when you’re running in front of a live TV audience,”
said Bobby. “It just seems everyone kicks it up a notch. And it’s not
just the drivers. The whole team gets pumped up when we go live.
Everybody in the Trans-am paddock knows how important it is and every
team wants to put on a good show for the Series and their individual
sponsors.”
Stu Hayner [#2 Trenton Forging/GMAC Commercial Finance Corvette]
agreed. “Bobby’s absolutely right. There’s something about live TV that
brings out the best in everyone.
It’s like putting on your Sunday best. Don’t get me wrong…. we work
hard every week. We always want to win. But this is a great opportunity
to showcase Trenton Forging, GMAC Commercial Finance and the Revolution
Motorsports team. These are the people that make it possible for us to
be out here so we want to make them proud.”
“The double header will be an extra bonus for the fans,” Stu continued.
“They will get a better sense of the battles that are shaping up in the
Series point standings. Right now I think there is a tight five-way
race for third place. And, Bobby [Sak] and the other two drivers
battling for the Rookie Championship are at a point in the season where
a lot can happen. The fans should really be able to get a feel of what
an exciting season the Series is having.”
