Something I missed in the Winston Cup Scene a few weeks ago(August 6th to be exact): In a story by the great Deb Williams, Petty Enterprises To Reorganize : Kyle Petty will again have Hot Wheels as his primary sponsor in 1999, I had a rumor up a few months back, saying Mattel/Hot Wheels may leave, so squash that rumor. Negotiations are underway between Richard Petty and STP, his longtime sponsor. The story also said that Robbie Loomis would be the Team Manager of both the #43 and 44 cars and probably remain as the crew chief for the #43. So those Loomis rumors should stop now. It is undecided if the entire team will be known as Petty Enterprises or stay separate with PE2 and the #44.(thanks to NYPD Mike for the heads up) (08-24-1998)
