Go 3 to 1 on 22 Jefferies -- His co-driver Fito Ramirez won the 500 last year in Class 1 and he just won and set a course record for the Dos Mares.

Thanks Tom - I've somehow got off of El Queso's lists.

Heidi is also listed in STOCK MINI ...number 79x.....(thought 7s was stock mini but maybe not)
TMW - 5-21-2009 at 05:26 PM
I checked the SCORE entry list today and she is only on two vehicles now. maybe she entered to see where she would be picked and then drop the ones
she didn't like.
