BGN: Mark Green/Timber Wolf Racing Notes



BGN Logo
Mark Green is currently the fourth most consistent driver in the NASCAR Busch Series in regards to miles completed. Only Todd Bodine, Randy LaJoie and Hermie Sadler have fewer unfinished miles among the NASCAR Busch Series regulars in the 1997 season.

               Driver         Miles Completed/Unfinished Miles

1. Todd Bodine 5738/70 2. Randy LaJoie 5723/85 3. Hermie Sadler 5589/219 4. Mark Green 5550/258 5. Kevin Lepage 5519/289

With his career best fifth place finish at Charlotte Motor Speedway two weeks ago, Mark Green moved up two positions in the NASCAR Busch Series standings to 11th. The Owensboro, Kentucky resident is currently 45 points out of 10th place.

Thumper, the No. 37 Timber Chevrolet Monte Carlo Mark Green is driving in the inaugural NASCAR Busch Series race at the California Speedway, is the same car he drove to a career best fifth place finish at Charlotte Motor Speedway two weeks ago and a 12th place finish at Michigan Speedway in August. In both races Green marched from the rear of the field to the front after disappointing qualifying efforts. "Thumper is awesome under race conditions," said Green. "At Charlotte, we passed 20 cars in the first 30 laps, while at Michigan we gained 24 positions during the race."

Mark Green will sign autographs and greet fans on Saturday, November 8 from 6:00-7:00 pm at Home Depot in Cutler Ridge, Florida. Several other NASCAR Busch Series drivers will also be present.

Circle K Convenience Stores is an associate sponsor on the No. 37 Timber Wolf Chevrolet Monte Carlo for the Kenwood Home & Car Audio 300 at California Speedway.
