Jim Sauter
Jim Sauter (June 1, 1943 – October 31, 2014) was an American stock car racing driver from Necedah, Wisconsin. He formerly raced in all three of NASCAR's national series, and is best known for having been a test driver for the International Race of Champions, as well as winning two championships in the Midwest-based ARTGO Challenge Series.
==Racing career==
Sauter started racing in 1964 in a modified at Raceway Park in Savage, Minnesota. He moved up to late models the following year.〔 Sauter moved to Wisconsin, and his career took off after he won the North Star 500 at the Minnesota State Fair in a Dave Marcis Chevelle.〔 Sauter said "The funny thing about that race was the fact that we had a barn full of various brands of tires that we wanted to use up and ended up with Goodyear on the outside and Firestone on the inside for no other reason than that. Everyone thought it must be the hot tip."〔 Marcis called Sauter in 1978 and asked him to drive his racecar in the ARCA 200. Sauter battled Bruce Hill for the win on the last lap. They crashed, with Hill ending his race along the wall and Sauter won.〔
Sauter raced in the NASCAR Winston Cup Series in the 1980s and 1990s.〔 He drove part-time in the Winston Cup series, posting four top ten finishes in 76 starts. He was an independent (non-factory) driver with limited funds. To help pay the bills, Sauter did Goodyear tires tests along with Marcis.〔
Sauter raced primarily in the ARTGO and ASA series. Sauter returned to Wisconsin to win the 1981 track championship at Wisconsin International Raceway.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Final 1981 Point Standings )〕 Sauter won the 1981 and 1982 ARTGO championships with 16 of 20 career victories in those years (seven in 1981 and nine in 1982).〔 Sauter won several major regional races including the 1980 National Short Track Championship at Rockford Speedway and the 1983 All American 400 at Nashville Fairgrounds Speedway.〔 He also competed at the Slinger Nationals, Snowball Derby, Winchester 400 and the World Crown.〔
