2005 Fifth place in the Night Before the 500 USAC National Midget Championship race
2004 Third place in the USAC National Midget Series, and he "Missed his high school graduation to race USAC midget and sprint cars in Attica, Ohio"

FWIW, the guy on the pole is a former dirt tracker. Sean Corr is a former Pure Stock (like a glorified Street Stock) and Pro Stock (a more advanced full fender division) driver at the Orange County Fair Speedway in Middletown, N.Y. This isn't any kind of attack or insult, but it's amazing that a guy can go from racing a bottom level dirt track division here in the Northeast to the pole at Daytona.

Bobby Gerhart Jr. did qualify for the pole, but had his time disallowed following qualifying. No matter how many times Gerhart wins or runs up front at Daytona, it never stops shocking me. Gerhart spent probably 15 years racing Northeast Modifieds weekly in Pennsylvania, and I used to see him race weekly on Sunday nights at the now closed Penn National (Pa.) Speedway. Gerhart was never much of a Modified driver. AFAIK, he only ever won two career features in the Modifieds, and he was more known for being an extreme hothead during his Modified days in the '80s-90s.
