* Jerry Nadeau's Bristol (Tenn.) Motor Speedway Driving Guide -- "When we go to Bristol, we are taking the car that we took to Rockingham (N.C.) which was a good race car. Bristol is a very tricky and unpredictable track that keeps you on your toes at all times. I really have fun there because it is such an exciting place. As long as we keep our fenders clean we should have a good day."

* Birthday City -- Tim Whelan and Rodney Combs Sr. will both celebrate birthdays in Bristol this weekend. Whelan, the UAW-Delphi team's gear and transmission specialist, will celebrate his 43rd birthday on March 23. He also serves as the jack man on race day. Combs, the spotter for Nadeau and Team 25, will celebrate his 51st birthday on March 26.
