Veteran sports car and CART driver Chris Kniefel has been hired to oversee racing and competition for CART this year.
The 39-year-old Kneifel has a long history in endurance racing as well as Champ Cars. He was a regular in IMSA in the late 1970s and early ‘80s, and competed in Champ Cars from ’82-’84, making 19 starts with a best finish of eighth on three occasions. I think he will make an excellent Steward. He is a racer, knows most of the current CART guys and should have an even hand as he is not affiliated with any of the teams. |

But how long will it be until Mario has invited him to a candlelight supper?
I like him in sports cars and I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt. And I'm glad the other guy has gone back to being Vice Presiden In Charge of Blowing Up Balloons. |
