SCHRADERS STATEMENTS
On Atlanta ...
"I am really looking forward to running the Busch Series race at Atlanta," said Schrader. "Ive had some pretty decent finishes there in my last couple of starts in the Busch Series. I always look forward to going to Atlanta anyway because of its fast pace and because of the Winston Cup win. It is going to be a tough race though. There are supposed to be a lot of cars entered, so successfully making it through qualifying will be the first goal."
SCHRADERS EQUIPMENT
Schrader will run the same car that finished 10th at Atlanta in November. The car also had a 10th place finish at Darlington in 1998. The team is using a new motor for Atlanta.
