NASCARFans E-Mail Newsletter ===== Morning Practice Speeds, Courtesy of Racin' Rob:

9 (Speed)- 185.578 75 (Mast) - 185.063 2 (R. Wallace) - 184.862

Compare these to the GM speeds (188.080 for Terry Labonte yesterday) =====

According to Jennie Watson, "John Andretti is going to be behind the wheel of the Hendrick owned #50 during the Bud Shoot Out in place of Ricky Craven..Richard Petty gave him his permission to drive the #50. No word exactly why Ricky's not driviing...."

=====

Bill S. suggests that the unknown #59 car testing at Daytona is Mark Gibson, from the ARCA ranks. Makes sense, since the ARCA cars run the same speedways as Cup does in most cases, and Mark has tried to get into some of the speedway Cup races in the past.

=====

DW has a new sponsor for 1998, but isn't going to announce it until Jan.16, 1998, during the Charlotte Media Tour. It will be announced at his shop. Thanks, RBeaston71. This information from DW's website at http://www.dw17.com. ===== As promised:

T minus 12 days and counting 'til the Craftsman Chevy Trucks Challenge T minus 33days and counting 'til the Winston Cup Bud Shootout T minus 37days and counting 'til the Gatorade Twin 125 Qualifiers T minus 39 days and counting 'til the Busch Series NAPA Auto Parts 300 T minus 40 days and counting 'til the Winston Cup Daytona 500 =====
