I guess Petty wants him to get a taste of the wall before the main event!!

Wow. What a career this guy has had. F1 to CART, CART to tin tops, tin tops to... trucks! And darned successful at every stop.

Maybe he'll find a level of stock car racing he can win at.

Or, maybe not. I doubt that he could run top-five at any of the local late model shows around here.

Good enough to run top five at Indy, though...

His race history re-defines a career ladder.

He hasn't slid behind a c'wagon and proclaimed to the world that the IRL is the place to be, such as some other exCARTers, so that's worth a few bonus points in my book.

Hey! I've been a career ladder like that one! I now have one foot on the bottom rung, the other firmly planted on the ground, and hanging on with both hands. You, know, I don't seem to be going anywhere, but I know ONE thing...that damn ladder is NOT going to tip over and there is no way I'm going to fall! Actually I think Christian has it all figured out! I can't WAIT 'til a Brazilian guy wins a NASCAB race in the deep South and gives the winner's interview to the adoring throng!

Do you think he could fit in a Quarter-Midget?
