This is the Statt Mann Baby. Time to Scatt a little bit. I’m often critical of NASCAR but this Chicago street race thing was positively inspired. Overlook the weather.

This conversation at a Danny Lasoskie “lost” weekend in Sedalia, Missouri on a blistering hot afternoon in 2005. The chat went all the…
