GERMANTOWN, TN | Nov. 19, 2013 – As much as baseball is about inches, racing is about tenths of a second.

Big Game Motorsports driver Sammy Swindell can attest to that as he was hampered by less than one second in multiple races spanning the World of Outlaws STP Sprint Car Series schedule across the country.

“I think all you have to do is look at our starting positions and our qualifying positions,” he said. “We weren’t really off on the qualifying that much. It always seemed to put us on the sixth or seventh row (in the feature). It seemed like most of our year we were coming from the fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh row. We qualified third through eighth a lot and it just puts you in the wrong spot. It’s just been harder to pass this year.”

SUNNYVALE, Texas (Nov. 20, 2013) – Sam Hafertepe Jr. gave his 2013 season a passing grade.

“I would have given ourselves a B minus,” he said. “During Pennsylvania Speedweek we ran real good and were consistent every night. Other than that we had a lot of ups and downs. My biggest thing that I want to accomplish is to be consistent every night. When you are consistent every night you can knock off a lot of good finishes and build on those good finishes.”
