When Danny Sullivan came over to Newman Racing, he brought with him the Frissbee he'd campaigned for Garvin Brown Racing during the '81 season. Newman's crew repainted the car in Budweiser livery, and although Sullivan never raced the car in these colors, privateer Rex Ramsey borrowed it at the end of the year to run the SCCA Runoffs at Road Atlanta, where he finished second in A/Sports Racing.
