I'm not sure about strong runner, he was the engine builder for the Greer, Black, Prudhomme car that was practically unbeatable, especially at Lions. As I recall it seemed he, Prudhomme, ran mostly from the spectator lane and more often than not he would lift the front wheels for at least 60 feet or so.
