Great driver, instructor and a stand up guy. Sebring 12 hour and Rolex 24 winner. Jim was my instructor at Skip Barber in 1999. I reconnected and did some coaching with him a few years back.

In the same year, 1996! Also, won GTU at the 24 in 1990. Super guy.

What I find amazing in his tutorial videos is how calm and unstressed his voice is while narrating a lap. I'm huffing and puffing without talking!
