Team-USA-Scholarship-Winners.jpg

Connor De Phillippi and Brett Smrz have won
their Team USA scholarships and will head down
to England for the Fall and Winter classics -
The Formula Ford Festival and the Walter
Hayes Winter classic.

De Phillippi is the current Skip Barber series
point leader winning 7 out of 10 events.

Smrz has come a long way since his accident in
2007 after losing his leg below the knee in
a traffic accident. But it did not sidelined
him and he returned to the track winning
4 F1600 races. Then he continued to defy the
odds when he won the Jim Russell series.
Zanardi must be proud for him.

Traffic accident? I thought he lost it after breaking his leg on a trampoline?

It was an off track trampoline accident that caused the issue, not a traffic accident.
