Abstract
The article presents information on driver Reed Sorenson, who is barely 19, but when he is on the racetrack, it looks as if he has been there forever. He carefully navigates traffic, passing seasoned Busch Series regulars and Nextel Cup drivers alike. In his 11th career start, Sorenson won from the pole by 14.4 seconds over Kenny Wallace. It is hard to believe that this rookie driver with a rookie team is second in points, 81 back of leader Carl Edwards. He even held his own in the season opener at Daytona and gained respect from Tony Stewart and Dale Earnhardt Junior by keeping his nose clean on his way to finishing ninth — the only Busch full-timer to finish in the top 10 besides defending series champion Martin Truex.
