Mile Sweet Mile...Tim Fedewa cut his racing teeth at the Milwaukee Mile during his early days as a driver in the American Speed Association. The one-mile oval was the first track over an half-mile that Fedewa had ever driven.

Now, Fedewa has become known as a "one-mile man." Three of his four victories in the NASCAR Busch Series, Grand National Division have come on the one-mile tracks. He's also racked up three top-10 finishes in Milwaukee in seven visits.

"Milwaukee is special to me because it's like a home track to me," Fedewa said. "I always have a lot of friends and family there to support me, and the stands are always full with supportive fans. This is a great track, and I really hope to give all the fans a great show this year."

Winning Combination...The No. 36 Stanley car that rolls off the transporter this weekend has been lucky for the Stanley team and Fedewa this year. It's the car that captured the outside pole at Nashville Speedway USA in April.

It is also the same car that Fedewa won from the pole with in May at New Hampshire International Speedway.

Meet And Greet... Stanley driver Tim Fedewa will be signing autographs at the sixth annual "NASCAR Night at the All-Star McDonald's." Fedewa will be available from 6 to 8 p.m. on Friday, June 30.

Who Wants To Be A Tool Winner? Jeff Taylor of TNN was the winner of the weekly "Who Wants To Be A Tool Winner?" Stanley Sweepstakes 2000 last weekend. Don't forget to pick up an entry form and guess where the No. 36 team will finish this weekend at The Milwaukee Mile.
