Quote:
"The celebrities keep on comin’ for this weekend’s 22nd Lone Star Nationals at Texas Motor Speedway! Renowned racer Robby Unser will make his Goodguys AutoCross debut this weekend in Texas.
Unser’s appearance represents Speedway Motors’ first foray into Goodguys AutoCross competition. He will pilot the Speedway Motors G-Comp ’65 Nova, outfitted with Speedway’s new G-Comp Front Suspension Kit and a full complement of AFCO coil-over shocks. The Nova is powered by a BluePrint 454ci Pro Series small-block engine backed by a Tremec 5-Speed transmission, and features a host of aftermarket performance parts from Billet Specialties, Dynatech, MSD, ProCar and Weld Racing.
Unser hails from one of America’s most storied racing families. The son of Indianapolis 500 champ Bobby Unser and nephew of Al Unser (another Indy 500 winner), Robby began go-kart racing at age 8, and by his teens was racing stock cars, sprint cars and Formula Fords. Unser won the American IndyCar Series title in 1989 and has raced in the Indianapolis 500 twice, earning the IRL’s Rookie of the Year honor in 1998. He has won the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb nine times, competed in Formula D drifting events, and also worked as a driving coach."
