They had had Hopes US top driver in this event would be contending for the championship but Thet was totally lost last weekend at Ponce after Foyt Qualified 4th there and DNFed both races..
This week Foyt qualified 9th and only managed 6th in the sprint.. So Rene Atkins went to local radio station In Florida covering the race at Sebring and convinced the announcer to Play Mojo Rising every time Foyt Passes the driver.. He said sure how many times could he possibly Have to play The Doors "Mojo Rising".
The evening Before the Race Rene played Mojo Rising for the Crew and stated this is Our Them song for this Race..
She Let Terry Wilson The Owner know what she had done.. They made a change in pit strategy instead of 1 pit or No pit in Sebring the would gamble with a 2 pit strategy even though top teams we faster in pit crews.
The Race started Lap 1 Foyt Passed T Anderson Mojo Rising was played and Pumped into Foyts Helmet.. Lap 2 Foyts Passed T Davies sound had not even finished.. The Crew Began singing Mojo Rising and and some of the Crowd Listening to the radio..
