       I'm a racing fan thru and thru, and I appreciate what Marlboro has
done to bring racing into the limelight, but my dad died of cancer, so
I'm lining up on the other side.(yes he did smoke for two brief periods
during WWII and later when I was about 10.  However his workplace was an
ashtray all day everyday.  2nd hand will get even the non-smokers)

 Sorry I forgot to consult my Winston Cup Press Guide before I posted.
 Perhaps I should be banned from the echo for doing so.
 Take it however you want to.  At least I made a point of telling people
 that this was not my intention, (and it isn't).  I give credit to anyone
 who can get out there and run in a circut as competitive as WC is.  I doubt
 that you or I either one have what it takes to do it.
 I guess my next observation has to be that with all the facts and figures
 out in the open now, why the Morgan-MaClure team isn't able to put it
 together enough to put the car on the point.  Obviously I don't know what
 I'm talking about, so why don't you use the facts to enlighten me.

Write your reply.

assistant: Dennis, keep in mind that his name is Ronald Conrad, not Richie Evans,
Charlie Jarzombek, Frankie Schneider, Bugs Stevens or even Geoff Bodine. He
probably thinks a few laps in some small block modified as a field filler
makes him an expert on every driver who ever lived. I dunno where he
developed the hard-on for the Brothers Bodine but it seems to be as much a
religious fervor with him as the worship of Dale Earnhardt (or trashing of
same) is with some people in this echo.
Just shine him on as a monomaniacal jerk and lets get on with something
more intelligent than lending his crap any more weight than it deserves.

wins in that time period.  However, looking back through some other sources,
I show that their first win was at Bristol on 8/25/90.  That's the team's
only short track win to date.  And with the way Sterling qualified at
Martinsville,it doesn't look to be changing soon...

Write your reply.

assistant: On 09-17-96  23:21 Bob Tanner said something like this to Max Lake...
 I've said for a long time that what Cale needed was a more experienced
 driver in the #98 car, and now I think he has one.  The first couple of
 runs with John haven't produced much in the way of results, (although
 I did see on Speedweek last night that he is starting 6th at Martinsville)
 but I don't think we will see how it's going to shake down until next
 season.
 I thought that Robbie put on a rather good show until his motor let loose
 on him.  Gotta admit, it was a pretty daring move for Derek Walker to
 enter a car at Vegas.  Wonder how the other CART owners felt about it?
 As for change, I think that when they get to MickeyWorld in January with
 the new chassis/engine combos, we might see a change.
 My prediction is that Robbie will be the NEW Mr. Excitement.
 I'm not so sure that it is image that RYR and the sponsors need to be
 concerned with.  More like where they want to finish at the end of the year.
