March 20, 2006 — Bill Lester stands out from the stereotypical NASCAR driver for many reasons: He is 45. He's a Berkeley-educated engineer. He once held a six-figure job at Hewlett-Packard, which he left to pursue his dream.

Go Bill!
Plus, his wife is of hue. That's nice to see.
I hope he does well, although Nascar has to be more de-rednecked for me to be interested. I can't get with Confederate flag flyers.
