  IROC -- The Series
IROC is motorsports' version of The Masters, where the skill of the driver -- not his mechanics or pit crew -- determines the winner.
The hidden heroes of the IROC driver roster are the test drivers: Dave Marcis, George Follmer, Jim Sauter, Dick Trickle, and Andy Hillenburg have all been regulars throughout the years, logging considerable miles setting up and equalizing the field of IROC cars.
Test driver for IROC since 1986, fellow Wisconsin native, Jim Sauter has done it all from making great race cars to making great race car drivers, which is evidenced by the seemingly never ending list of Sauter's sons garnering championships, race wins and recognition attributed to their driving abilities.
