I was watching the Olympics last night when they did a feature about Nick Goepper a bronze medalist in Freestyle Skiing (Slopestyle) from Lawrenceburg, Indiana. When they were showing footage of him as a kid he was wearing a Joey Saldana KKR red #9 t-shirt. Minor deal I realize but cool none the less.
Cheers!

You're right I just found this link on youtube and after reviewing the footage at around the 30second mark it's not Saldana.

After searching around it indeed looks like a Rob Chaney 9x from around 2003 or so.
Cheers!

This is the earliest I could find. It's from Fremont back in 2001, with Butch Schroeder. I got it from Steve Hardins site. Always thought it was a sharp looking car.

As soon as they said he was from Lawrenceburg I hoped sprint cars would come up. Sure enough:

It prolly also helps in your footballer announcing career that everyone within a hundred mile radious of your town is related... :/

Just wondering here -- how many folks (relatively speaking) within your stipulated realm of "a hundred miles" of his town know the proper spelling of "radius"? Seems the lowly number of one - would be more. than. you.
