This is the Statt Mann Baby!!  Time to Scatt a little bit.

The beauty of the Sport Compact/Tuner world is the cross pollination among drivers at all levels.

Take Tanner Foust.  He’s a rally driver who drifts.  He introduced the drift sport to former World Rally Champion Colin McRae last summer at Irwindale, The House of Drift.

“Then Colin drove around Irwindale, one of the toughest tracks on our schedule,” Foust told me yesterday.  “The second time around it was like a walk in the park.

“It just goes to show you he’s a legend for a reason.  And he had a lot of fun.  He said it’s something he might look into playing with in the future.”

You see, there’s proof drivers drive.  In a word they drive anything.  Those who don’t, can’t or won’t, need to find another title for their profession.

Curiously, many today would rather be businessmen than sportsmen.

Now, there’s nothing wrong with either one.  We just shouldn’t confuse the two.

Peace.
