"I can't stand someone in front of me on the track," says the speeder, "and I can't stand someone in front of me on the freeway." Compactly muscular at 6 ft. 2 in. and 175 lbs., Lewis now competes for the Santa Monica Track Club, since he was declared scholastically ineligible at Houston last year.
