    We wanted to, but TWS wants $5,000-$6,000 for a day mid week because of the cost of closing the concrete walls on the back straight :shock: :shock:

    The "plan" is to go to the ARCA practice days at Taladega the week before the race and Jason will be allowed his own session to "prove" to the ARCA officials that he can hold a "safe" line at the minium speed...

    THEN, we hope to find some other underfunded teams to practice drafting at the prerace practice sessions...

    The car owners and I do not expect much out of Jason (no fault of his) and we will not push him to risk the car early in the season. I just cannot pass up this oppertunity for him to drive a Roush prepared car at some of the top Superspeedways in the world (I don't sleep much at night and pinch myself on a regular basis). If he finishes dead last and 50 laps down with an intact car, I will be the proudest father you have ever seen.

    NO :shock: :shock: :shock: ... and they do make pit stops :!: :!: ...

    Hope to find some volunteers (prefer guys who don't wanna just sit around eating ice cream :roll: )...

    Still in the VERY early stages it will be two weeks before I can get my time line set and start ironing out the details
