No new Chevy until 2000?

Mike Mulhern of the JournalNow reports: Chevrolet’s new Monte Carlo might not be OK’d for Winston Cup competition until the year 2000, Richard Childress said yesterday, and he isn’t happy about it. NASCAR’s push toward more common templates is apparently at the root of the possible delay, but it’s unclear whether GM officials want to delay release of the car or whether NASCAR officials are dragging their feet on template issues.(JournalNow)(6-1-98)
