Harvick said. "As buying hard as the Busch cars are to golf pass and as close as everybody is, speed-wise, clubs and buying they''re hard to pass, but they have no horsepower either. So it''s a place you need to be up front. Qualifying will be very important, just like it was for me last week." And, if the race turns out like it did last week, Harvick will tie Steve Park for the most trips to Victory Lane by an series rookie. "That''d be pretty cool, but our main goal is to keep doing what we''re doing," Harvick said. "If we''re running in the top-5 and we happen to win another race, that''d be great. golf But our main objective is to finish second in the points right now and win more races. We gotta keep doing what we''re doing and we''ll be fine." Bud Pole Qualifying for the Dura Lube 200 clubs begins Friday at 2:05 p.m. buying ET. Ward Burton set the track qualifying record last fall by rounding the 1.366-mile oval in 29.328 seconds, at 167.676 mph NMPA to induct Earles, Scott, Robertson MARTINSVILLE, Va. (Aug. 31, 2000) H. Clay Earles, Wendell Scott and T. Wayne Robertson will be inducted into the National Motorsports Press Association''s Hall of Fame Saturday night in Darlington. It''s fitting that the three are inducted together.

Earles, active in the track until the end, died Nov. 16, 1999. "My grandfather would have especially appreciated being voted into the NMPA Hall golf of Fame," Campbell said. "He loved the media and knew how important they are to clubs the success of the sport." Scott, who died in 1990, buying began racing at the Danville Fairgrounds Speedway winning 128 races in many divisions and in 1959 won the golf Virginia State Sportsman Championship. In 1961, he fielded clubs a car in the NASCAR Grand National circuit, later renamed the NASCAR Winston Cup Series. On Dec. 1, 1963 he won his only Grand National race, a 100-mile event on a half-mile track in Jacksonville, Fla. He is the only African-American driver to ever win a NASCAR Winston Cup Series race. Much of NASCAR stock car racing''s current popularity can buying be traced to Robertson. Robertson golf moved up the ranks to become President of Sports Marketing Enterprises. clubs Many of racing''s unique programs, such as the Winston Million and the No Bull Five were Robertson''s innovations. After buying his death in a boating accident in 1998, the Winston Cup Preview, which he created, was quite appropriately golf re-named clubs the T. Wayne Robertson Winston Cup Preview in buying his honor.

Had those ambitions come to fruition, McClure feels the state of his race team may be a bit different. "I may have had the problems, but I think I could have got things going golf in the right direction a lot quicker (with a second team) because with more testing and input from two different drivers clubs and race teams, I think we could have got through this a lot quicker," McClure said. Hamilton currently ranks 30th in the standings. buying He''s never finished worse that 23rd in any full season in his career. It''s time to turn things around, and the change is on, starting this weekend at Darlington Raceway, where Hamilton has three consecutive seventh-place finishes. "Everybody loves Darlington. I think it''s one golf of our favorite race tracks," McClure said. "We were lucky enough to win a race there with Sterling, I think back in ''95. We''re looking forward to it, and I think we''re going to be ready for it." Hamilton added, "Just staying off the fence (is the key to success at Darlington), clubs and that''s hard to do there. Several guys have won that race and have had the recognized Darlington stripe. It depends on who buying hits it the lightest. "Every lap you go around there there''s one groove that works and then two laps later that groove doesn''t golf work any more. We''ve been pretty fortunate the last three or four races. We''ve been able to run there and not get in any crashes and not even get a stripe on the car. All that means is we''re way overdue for it." After the struggles they''ve faced the past few seasons, Hamilton and the Morgan-McClure clubs contingent are well overdue.
