debwill Posted November 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2007 A-Rocket, I just talked with Chris Davidson. He is driving the #96 PLM, not Greg. By the way, the weather is totally awesome today. I know it will be cold in the grandstands tonight, but it's really nice here this afternoon. Let's hope this beautiful weather holds throughout the weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

debwill Posted November 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2007 We're finishing up our last practice session now. We had to take a break for a funeral (funeral home and graveyard adjacent the racetrack). T. Wade Welch is having some bad luck today - has spun out and hit the wall a couple of times. He has some damage to the right rear, but it looks like his crew will be able to get it fixed. An anoymous team member said, "He's hit everything so far, except for the pacecar!" I'll post the last practice times soon - session ends around 4P. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
