Trans-Am: Revolution Motorsports Season Wrap-Up
Bobby Sak Wraps Up Rookie Year On A High Note
Second place finish in Puerto Rico caps of a stellar season
San Juan PR – Oct. 28, 2003 – In the end, Bobby Sak’s [#10 Revolution
Motorsports Corvette] second place finish at the Puerto Rico Grand Prix
would not be enough for him to snag the Rookie of the Year title in the
Motorock Trans-Am Tour for the BFGoodrich Tires Cup. Regardless, Sak
will be remembered as one of the most exciting young rookies to hit the
Trans-Am circuit in a long, long time.
From coast-to-coast and from Montreal to San Juan, Bobby Sak and Jorge
Diaz Jr. stole the show providing one of the most hotly contested
Rookie titles in Trans-Am history. While the points spread may have
seemed out of reach at times, the action these two young warriors
brought to the track was all out war. When the dust had settled only a
mere 10 points separated the two. Both had delivered on a promise of
Trans-Am excitement.
“I couldn’t have asked for a better Rookie year,” said Sak. “Sure, I’d
love to be holding that rookie title… but, I think we proved our team’s
talent and fortitude by demonstrating our commitment to winning. We
stayed in it right down to the end. In reality, it became a matter of
our hot streak coming just slightly out of sync with Diaz’s cold
streak. Either way, we’re proud. The crew and team can go home for the
off-season knowing they left nothing on the track. We put it all out
there.”
Sak saw three trips to the podium in 2003. He had a second in Lime
Rock, a third in Miami and second in Puerto Rico. In 11 starts, Sak
finished the year with three top-5 finishes and 8 top-10s.
Sak’s efforts garnered him 5th place in the Driver’s Championship, just
10 points behind Jorge Diaz Jr. in 4th and 19 points behind Mike Lewis
in 3rd. Johnny Miller took 2nd place 76 points behind Champion, Scott
Pruett. It should be noted Miller only started 10 of 11 races.
