LVM....for your young Jr fan.

A little tidbit on Jr's brake line problem last week. It was originally thought his brush with Rocketman loosened the line resulting in the fluid loss.

However, TJ said in an interview that the rear tire changer knocked the rear brake line off ... Said he bent something on the first 2 stops then knocked it off.....

Stuff happens. Fortunately, it wasn't a race ending deal thanks to the guts of the driver hanging it out there in the turns with no rear brake and very little front brake left.

Earnhardt fans.....

Bono Manion on Claire B's show yesterday........

Talking about how Jr and the 8 team were really coming on and how they were really going to be the ones to beat. He said that DEI is working HARD to get them that championship. He said that the 2 teams are and will continue to work very close together and they will help each other as much as possible. He said that they have already moved into the new shop and so them and the 8 team work side by side now. They are just seperated by a hallway and so they share alot.

He said that DEI is very excited and determined to win the championship with Jr. He said they have improved greatly with engines and other things. They know what they are doing and have what it takes to go all the way. He said they have alot that they expect to show in the final 10 and he thinks they will be great. He said that the 8 team is just very focused and determined to go out there and be the team to beat every week for the championship. He said he has never seem them so excited and ready to go. They have a plan and know what they have to do. He said the team has a "togetherness" about them. They are working great together and things are better than ever. they want it bad for each other and they and DEI will do whatever they can to get it.
