Town 300 (Busch) and the UAW-DaimlerChrysler  400 (Cup) over the weekend. 
However, Ringers racers and teams  didn't seem to have lady luck on their 
sides. 
UnderX by Ringers supporters, Paul  Menard and Tracy Hines both finished the 
race, but were both laps  down. 
Menard finished in the  20th position, two laps down; while Hines finished 
38th,  seven laps down. 
On Sunday in Nextel Cup action,  Kurt Busch, driver of the No. 2 Miller Lite 
Penske Racing Dodge and a native of  Las Vegas, qualified in the sixth

Hampton, Ga.,  for their respective races.
