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

LaCrosse Fairgrounds Speedway) on July 14, 1970.^[2] His career took off after he won the North Star 500 at the Minnesota State Fair in a Dave Marcis Chevelle.^[1] 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."^[1] 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.^[1]

Sauter raced part time in the NASCAR

Winston Cup Series in the 1980s and 1990s,^[3] posting four top ten finishes in 76 starts. He said his biggest thrill was leading the 1982 Daytona 500. He was an independent (non-factory) driver with limited funds. To help pay the bills, Sauter did Goodyear tire tests along with Marcis.^[3]

Sauter raced primarily in the ARTGO and ASA series. Sauter returned to Wisconsin to win the 1981 track championship at

Slinger Nationals, Snowball Derby, Winchester 400 and the World Crown.^[5]
