A New Sherrif in Town?

If pre-season testing is foretelling as to what will happen during the 2008 Champ Car World Series season, it's safe to say that Forsythe/Pettit Racing will be in the hunt thanks to an exciting newcomer.

For a second consecutive day at Sebring International Raceway, Franck Montagny, driving for Forsythe/Pettit Racing, topped the time charts. The former Formula 1 driver set a lap of 50.209 seconds (119.668 mph), more than half of a second quicker than the fastest time set in the open test that took place in Sebring a year ago.

The Frenchman isn't only quick, he has personality. "The car is really bad," he started off by saying with a big grin on his face.

"No, everything is good. For the first time in the car, I'm quite happy. Everybody is very motivated inside the team. I was at the factory working with the engineers, the mechanics and everything was fine but you never know until you get in the car. Obviously things are going well. We did everything we wanted to do. So it's cool, I just hope I will stay in the car for the Championship!"
