When Tomas Enge looked at the 2007 schedule for the American Le Mans Series, he viewed the Utah Grand Prix as just another race. Oh sure, he won the inaugural event in 2006 at Miller Motorsports Park with Darren Turner but Enge had won before in the Series and throughout his career many, many times.
It all changed after the Acura Sports Car Challenge of St. Petersburg, where Enge suffered numerous injuries in a crash while leading the GT2 class for Petersen Motorsports/White Lightning Racing. After missing the following two rounds and being out of a race car for six weeks, Enge has returned to Petersen/White Lightning and its Ferrari F430 GT with a test session Saturday and Sunday in advance of this weekend’s two-hour, 45-minute Series race.
“I didn’t know what to expect and was pretty nervous a few days before the test, “ Enge said. “But things went fine. The first couple of laps I wanted to start slowly and build up speed. But I really couldn’t hold myself back.
