Johan:

Felton, the "King of Road Atlanta"; I set up a car for him at the track. He took me for a lap at full tilt so he could show me what the car did . . . went into severe oversteer under certain conditions. I did this while hanging onto the roll cage . . . no restraints! I know how scarey 12 is, believe me. I don't want to post my quote. Oh, we got the car sorted out. The next race was Daytona. He got the pole, set the fastest race lap and won the race. IMSA hung more weight on his car for the remainder of the season.
