Hmmmm TC in the 79 . Could be both good and bad . I hope David and the guys are ready to build some cars and order some front bumpers. Would this move Mike to the 13?

I'm hearing that a candidate for the 79 ride will be Chuck Hossfeld.

The #79 is definitely one of the premiere cars on the Tour and many drivers will be seeking to fill the vacated seat . I have heard that Ted Christopher is one driver in consideration . Hossfeld is new to me , but he definitely has the talent . I would like to see Matt Hirschman get a shot at the ride myself . Jim Storace also was rumored to drive the teams second car last season . I am not sure what happened with that deal . The other thing that could happen is to put a driver from the Whelen Southern Tour into the car . As you know the #79 is based in North Carolina . Someone like Brian Loftin would be a sensible choice . We will have to keep our eyes on this for sure , whoever ends up in the car , should be a factor in the 2006 championship hunt.


Another driver I would like to see have a chance with a top level team would be Steve Whitt , he turned alot of heads this season with a relatively unknown team .

That could prove to be quite a potent combination if David and Chuck can communicate .
