Jack Roush “wants to get big in the business, really big,” according to one close associate, talking about Roush’s plans to expand his WC operation. According to one GM source, Roush might use the Pontiac card to try to leverage NASCAR to OK body changes for the new Ford Taurus. Unconfirmed reports are that Roush is interested in adding both Johnny Benson and Ward Burton to his stable of drivers. Roush is also close to deciding to run his own IRL team next year, according to team sources.(JournalNow)&7-31-97)
