After an absence of nearly ten years following his last Cup start, Brad Noffsinger returns to NASCAR in this race. Noffsinger replaced Stevie Reeves in the #43 Curb Records car. The change didn't work out, Noffsinger only made five starts over the next 13 races before he was out of the car and done racing in NASCAR 2. nascarman posted: 10.31.2008 - 6:44 pm Rate this comment: (0) (0) Numbers and makes of DNQs: 92 Derrike Cope Chv 78 Loy Allen Chv 35 Lyndon Amick Pon 36 Matt Hutter Pon 20 Blaise Alexander Chv 30 Mike Cope Chv 48 Kenny Irwin Frd 75 Kelly Denton Chv 80 Mark Krogh Chv 47 Andy Santerre Chv 46 Gary Laton Chv 3.

Gary Laton, who was driving the No. 46 Tampico Citrus Punch Chevrolet, crashed into the turn four wall on the driver's side. He had to be pried out of the car and taken off in a stretcher to an ambulance. Jeff Purvis, Jeff Krogh and Andy Santerre also crashed in qualifying. So the information is out there, Kenny Irwin attempted to qualify the No. 48 Unifirst Uniforms Chevrolet for Sammy Kershaw Motorsports.

Dale had a solid day, leading a few laps and finishing 12th, but Jason ultimately crashed out in an incident with Jeff Purvis. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ *Post a comment:* Your comment may not appear immediately - all comments must be approved by the moderator.
