BRADENTON, Fla. -- Tommy D'Aprile and Quain Stott teamed up again this past weekend for the Outlaw Snowbird Nationals. If you expect outlaws to change their ways, well, you better wait pray for another day.

D'Aprile and Stott continued the tandem one - two punch they started in 2006 when Stott finished number one in the world in IHRA Pro Modified racing and D'Aprile finished with Pro Rookie honors and number five in the world. That same season, D'Aprile and Stott ended up in the winner's circle together with a runner-up and win in Maryland. The results in Bradenton seemed like a bad re-run for teams not driving a Corvette driven by either D'Aprile or Stott who made it to the finals again.

D'Aprile took his Access Able Mobility / Sir Thomas, Inc. Racing 1963 split-window Corvette to a runner-up finish. "I knew we were at a disadvantage going into that final round," explained D'Aprile. "My car still needs a few more parts to be totally ready to go outlaw racing. But went to the line set on kill. Unfortunately we just blew the tires off of the car."

Racing with his old team mate Quain Stott is something D'Aprile looks forward to. "Quain and I didn't get a chance to race that much against each other this year. So, making the final round with Quain was fun," D'Aprile said. "We ran good, but my car was plagued with little problems all weekend long. I'm not sure we ever reached our potential for what that car could do."

If D'Aprile's continues to 'not' perform up to his potential and make the final round, it could prove trouble for the rest of the Pro Modified contingency in 2008.

"I'm excited about the potential for this team and all of the exciting things that we have planned for 2008," D'Aprile continued. "We have a lot to look forward to."
