Our premise is to put five different drivers in the same race car and stopwatch what happens when they make separate tours of Texas Motor Speedway this weekend. What should happen is that one will make the car run faster than the others.
None holds an edge in machinery or crew.
The car sets up to suit each driver's comfort level. They have the same shoe size, so no one has the advantage of a heavier foot. There's gas in the tank and air in the tires, which makes for better starts and smoother rides. All have courage. Bravery is as common as breathing to those willing to turn themselves into a 200-mph blur down the TMS straightaway.
