In early April, I made my way to Las Vegas for the inaugural Champ car Vegas Grand Prix. This new event featured just three races through the streets of downtown Las Vegas, the main Champ car race, an Atlantic race, and a historic Formula One race sanctioned by Historic Grand Prix. For some inexplicable reason, the organizers must not have been able to find a suitable talking head for the historic Formula One cars, as they asked me to come out and announce the race. Well, every event makes mistakes the first year!
While I’ve actually announced at several events for HGP in the past, one of the things that made this particular race special was the fact that the organizers had arranged for several “star drivers” to compete in the HGP race. Among these star drivers were Indy champions Bobby Rahal and Arie Luyendyk.
