Re: Pew Top Pro-Am DP Driver

Congratulations, John!!

I was lost in the mountains of California last year at around this time, so I missed the fact that you won the Trueman award last year, too. One is impressive enough, but two in a row is a real accomplishment!

Congrats John!! I'm not surprised. You've come such a long way in a short time.

Speaking of Patterson, he is experiencing LMP2 downforce for the first time at Road Atlanta this weekend. I don't think he knew what to expect! His email updates have been fun to read.

John, you gotta at least do a private test sometime before you retire. Downforce at this level is the fighter jet of cars. You connect with the machine and the track in a manner that is not otherwise possible.
