Well, it's good to know that if this IndyCar gig falls apart, and if this Busch series venture doesn't work out, Uncle Sam should be safe making a career out of ARCA racing.
Friday night Sam Hornish Jr started from the pole, encountered some fueling problems somewhat reminiscent of Indy 2006, and worked his way back up to finishing second in the Michigan 200. Sam was runner up to Erik Darnell, who happened to win a reality TV show called Roush Racing Driver X last year. (Shameful confession: I watched this show. Hey, it was October - what else was I gonna do?)
Anyhow, congratulations Sam...If it makes you happy, it can't be that bad.

Erin Crocker was third! Sad truth is, for about anyone but Sam, winning in ARCA probably plays better than the IRL.
