As much as Sam Hornish Jr. longs for another shot at the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series, he vows that he’s not going to jump at the first opportunity that comes along. ‘I’ll be looking at a shot for a good Cup ride until I hang up my driver’s gloves, but I feel like at this point in time I continue to ‘ the best way I can put it without sounding too spoiled ‘ enjoy my time with my wife and my family, and if I’m going to be away from them, I want to be able to hopefully have an opportunity to win a race,’ Hornish said after finishing second in Saturday’s Nationwide Series race at Michigan International Speedway. ‘And so far in the three races that I’ve been scheduled to do this year, we’ve got a win and a second and a fifth. My overall goal is to be in something full-time that I can compete for wins in whether that’s on the Nationwide side or the Cup side. That’s where I want to be, so I’m probably a little choosy at this point in my career, but I also know what my objectives are to go out there. I don’t necessarily need to have ‘driver’ beside my name, I just want to have the opportunity when I do go out there and drive to win races.’(AutoWeek)
