I give his team a lotta credit for being to take a backup car and have it dominate like that. 6. biffle16 posted: 04.02.2007 - 9:18 pm Rate this comment: (0) (0) GET 'EM GREG!

Although that eventually came apart, in no small part due to Kurt Busch's later and rather sudden decision to leave Roush for Penske in 2006, Mark still saluted his fans with several retro paint jobs over the year. Here his original colors with Roush, the solid dark blue look he ran for Stroh's and Stroh's Light beer in 1988 and 1989, returned for a final ride. 2005 also saw the Ganassi Havoline team fielding several retro paint jobs over the course of the year. Team sponsor Texaco was celebrating an anniversary and at four races throughout the year had the car repainted into retro schemes featuring their old, retired logos and styles. 13.

Just 5 years before, at least a handful of Northeastern drivers (Andretti, the Bodines, Craven, Lepage, Nadeau, Spencer) would be in a given race; strangely all of them were casualties of teams that imploded, younger drivers getting an opportunity, or career-altering injuries. 16. 88&4Fan posted: 08.20.2015 - 10:40 pm Rate this comment: (0) (0) Fujifilm is one word.

Still, Joe Gibbs let him drive the #11 Fedex Chevy for 14 more weeks. In 19 starts for Leffler at JGR: 0 wins, 0 top 5's, 0 top 10's. 1 DNQ. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ *Post a comment:* Your comment may not appear immediately - all comments must be approved by the moderator.
