Neil Breen has the distinction of being the only
Ferrari Club of Las Vegas Member with a racing heritage that includes numerous Formula Atlantic Championships.
About a year ago he bought a 2001 Indy Car and put it into shape. On December 10th he took it out to
Spring Mountain Motorsports Ranch for a dry run.
The engine block had to be pre-heated and methanol had to be blown out of the engine before starting.
Debra Bieniek and Jeff Wenger drove out for the priviledge of seeing Neil and his mechanic Todd Tapply of
Mario Andretti Racing
prepare the car for the track and then witnessed Neil take it out onto the track,
the first time a real Indy Car has ever driven at Spring Mountain.
