Ricky Craven comments on rumors about leaving the #25 Bud team at end of the season from NASCAR Online: “I certainly have no intention of leaving. The Hendrick team and the No. 25 Budweiser ride are exactly what I’ve worked 16 years for. I’ve raced 15 years for that particular opportunity. Although things haven’t gone as well as I’d liked, I’m not giving up on it. Rick Hendrick is one of the finest people I’ve ever met, and I must say it would be more difficult if he weren’t in the equation, but I have all intentions of staying where I’m at. I have a two-year contract and enjoying a much better ’98 with Budweiser and Hendrick Motorsports.”(9-13-97)
