Revolution Motorsports Lime Rock Preview


Detroit – May 21, 2003 –  As the Trans-Am Series for the BFGoodrich 
Tires Cup pulls into Lime Rock Park for the Mohegan Sun Presents the 
Lime Rock Grand Prix, Stu Hayner can only think about what could have 
been in the 2002 version of this popular east coast stop on the tour.

“Lime Rock was the first race this team really came together. Putting 
the car on the pole proved what we are capable of,” said Hayner, driver 
of the #2 Trenton Forging/GMAC Commercial Finance Corvette. “We were so 
strong. The car wasn’t necessarily up on power, but we had the set-up 
nailed. I could put the car anywhere I wanted. On this track that gives 
you confidence and that’s an added weapon that’s tough to beat.”

Hayner’s rookie teammate, Bobby Sak [#10 Revolution Motorsports 
Corvette] hopes to capitalize on the #2 car’s history here.

“It’s going to help a lot knowing we were strong here last year,” said 
Bobby. “Last week in Mosport Stu and I were really able to share a lot 
of information. I think that was helpful for Shane [Duhaime, Revolution 
Motorsports Crew Chief] in finding the best set-up. I’m learning how to 
compare information with Stu and in turn, express to Shane what’s 
working and what’s not. I think we’ll continue to improve on that as 
the season goes on.”

Hayner agreed. “Bobby is really becoming a great asset as a teammate. 
Last week at Mosport we had a rhythm going early on in the race. It had 
to be the most fun I’ve had in years. It’s very rewarding to watch 
Bobby’s progress. I’ve seen some pretty impressive driving from him.”

Team owner, Don Sak, on returning to Lime Rock; “Coming back to Lime 
Rock is bittersweet. This is the track where our team had its first big 
success and its first big heartbreak. But, looking back, it was the 
start of something great. It established character that our team 
continued display all season long. Today they handle the challenge like 
the professionals they are. I guess it’s why winning is so difficult 
and why it feels so good. We’ll get there… I have no doubt.”

Sak also had comments about the team and Bobby’s performance. “You have 
no idea how exciting it is to watch Bobby and Stu work together. It’s a 
great fit. Together they bring tremendous synergy to the process of 
finding the right set-ups. And their relationship spills over to the 
camaraderie of the crew.”
