The Carter brothers enjoyed their VIP treatment and access. Jeff called his event-packed day "unforgettable" and named the hot lap ride in the Indy pace car as the highlight. "It's something totally different going 110 (mph) and knowing they go over 200." Hear the entire interview Brother Buddy claimed "it was a helluva way to spend a birthday." When asked to list his most memorable moments, he said, "I got to see Gene Simmons and meet Bobby Rahal – but not in that order." The Carters saw the finale of Dario Franchitti's winningest season. The Canadian Club driver took four Indy Racing League races including the Indy 500, and claimed the IndyCar Series Championship title. The "Race to Go Green Sweepstakes" was sponsored by the Ethanol Promotion and Information Council, IndyCar Series, Sinden Racing Service and Rahal Letterman Racing. |
