PAVEMENT NEVER LOOKED SO GOOD

Scott Speed, the ARCA RE/MAX Series point's leader, can't express enough his desire to drive on asphalt again. The Red Bull rookie spent the past two ARCA events on dirt and has no aspirations of going back.

2008 season - four on ovals and one road-course event.

"If we don't wreck or break, we should have no problem winning this championship," Speed said. "The emphasis is on the team to prepare everything right. We don't need to make any aggressive - ever we go."
