Yup. The two things that a driver can get bonus points for are leading a lap (5 points), and leading the most laps in a single race (5 points). =Bob --- GEcho 1.00 * Origin: Rock In A Hard Place, Chesapeake, Va (1:271/560) --------------- FIDO MESSAGE AREA==> TOPIC: 142 AUTO RACING Ref: DB400091 Date: 06/28/96 From: TONY Z Time: 10:54am \/To: JOHN TUCKER (Read 7 times) Subj: Re: Hendrick Motorsports On 23 Jun 96 10:53:42, John Tucker said the following to All: JT> Can anyone explain to me how Gordon and Labonte can have such consistantly JT> cars while Schrader seems to get crap?!

Watching Thunder a while back and every fifth word used by the announcers was IRL. This was the midget/FF2000/sprint show where the big crash and burn occured. Just seems to me the only media still pushing IRL is the one that has a stake in it.

They both should be lookin' for a different owner to hook up with. I just accessed the Collector's Corner BBS for the first time on Monday. Got the info about it from Eddie Kiplinger. Take a look at Treasure Chest BBS (426-7719) and Computer Forum BBS (471-0736) if you have not already done so. --- * WR 1.31 # 698 * Adult GIF files are meant for testing monitors! --- DB 1.58/004376 * Origin: The Computer Forum 804-471-0736 (1:275/17)
