    I'd like to nominate Borden Dairy drivers for that award. They've never been anything less than top-notch in all my experiences with them. And like bull haulers, they're not afraid to lay the hammer down when it's time to mooo-ve.

    Back when I first started, the same thing happened with me on I-90 as I was rolling eastbound across the top of Indiana.

    So I went online and checked the race schedule and the teams were only going from Chicagoland to Michigan International - a whole 230 miles for their week.

    They typically have to go home, swap out equipment and then head to the next track

    We flew drivers to the pits day before green flag so they could sleep until after the checkers and rig was loaded and dishes were washed.
