FansTeam formed

“Winston Cup fans long have adopted race teams as their rooting favorite. Next season, they’ll have the opportunity to put their money where their heart is. Owner Dick Bahre, with support from Arby’s restaurant chain, plans to launch the FansTeam, with comedian Jeff Foxworthy the first to climb on board. For a $195 membership fee, fans can become an official team sponsor, with perks to include their name on the No. 64 team’s hauler. The car will be unveiled Nov. 15 in Atlanta. No driver has been named. For information, call 1-888-TEAM-064.”(see the story at USA Today, Fans can have piece of racing team ), makes me wonder what ever happened to Team Paradigm, who tried this in 1997, thanks Med(10-31-97)
