Boris Said posted the fastest two runs Friday at Mount Van Hoevenberg and easily won the qualifying for the Chevrolet Geoff Bodine Bobsled Challenge. Said bested the driver who organized the unique event by nearly a second and was the target of more than a few barbs when he finished. Said figured to be the man to beat over the 17-turn layout. He won the first race in the event’s inaugural run a year ago and his late father, Bob, drove in the 1968 and 1972 Winter Olympics for the U.S. bobsled team.(Associated Press), see more at bodinebobsled.com(1-6-2007)
