Connecticut’s favorite sons Bob and Scott Sharp have blazed a trail for motorsport for four decades – Bob winning six-time SCCA championships and son Scott taking Trans-AM, IndyCar and American Le Mans Series championship wins.

Bob Sharp Racing not only was a platform for the Connecticut native’s own success, some famous names also were seen behind the wheel of his red, white and blue Datuns including Paul Newman and Tom Cruise.

Bob Sharp Racing also launched the career of Bob’s son, Scott.

Now a team owner in his own right at Extreme Speed Motorsport, Scott took the chance to visit the family home prior to the Lime Rock Park weekend to reminisce about days of old.
