Page 4, interesting, though not surprising..
Stone's look at things, particularly the have's and have not part
sounded, well, kinda' familiar, hmmm..
50k total at Miller? I dunno for sure, but that's gotta' to be close
break even, doncha' think?
Hmm, doesn't bode well for a long term WSB deal..
Then there's page 6 where rain at M/O is discussed.
DMG do yourself a favor, just say *NO* to rain racing and be done with it..
And on the very next page a Yosh sayonara?
Oh well, c'ya.....

yeah the best team, and the one that supports the most satellite team
and you're runnin' em out - what a great plan.
That's the best way for parity - everyone can't be good - so make
everyone suck. Oh well. WSB seems pretty good these days...

What? This is meant to be a natioanl level professional series, and
you don't want them to ride in the rain?
How about if the sun's too bright?
