    Stuck in a hospital bed, Brian Vickers wanted to live another day.

    Once he recovered, he hungered for a competitive ride.

    Even when life tossed obstacles in Vickers' path, his determined spirit never waned. After four years of health scares and unemployment put his promising career in doubt, Vickers kept pushing toward the finish line. He got there Sunday as the surprise winner at New Hampshire Motor Speedway.

    "Coming here and sitting in Victory Lane, just makes it one of the most special events in my life," Vickers said.
