Moments after extricating his 6-foot-5, 265-pound frame from the stock car's cockpit, Sav Rocca walked sheepishly toward the board toting the speeds posted during yesterday's exhibition runs at Dover International Speedway. Rocca is no oversize would-be NASCAR driver, but rather a burly Australian-rules football star who hopes to turn coaches' heads when he joins fellow rookies and free agents for the opening of the Eagles' training camp tomorrow at Lehigh University. By topping the charts with a run at 119.72 m.p.h., the punter surprised himself, gained the attention of his new teammates, and conquered the Monster Mile in his first stint behind the wheel of an American race car.
