I remember him in the Carling Black Label cars (Can Am M20, Indy (Eagle?), was there a F5000 car? - those cars looked great and he had some good results in them.), and as a competitor in the 1983 Trans Am championship, which he won. He had some pretty spirited duels with teammate Ribbs, both on and off track. My favorite memory of that season is when he told a reporter that my team's car was the best in the series, and with another driver would be on pole for every race. Ruffled the feathers of our driver a bit, who then went out and put it on pole at the next event, validating Hobbs's point.
