Liberati Back

A few weeks ago I ran a jayskiism about Tony Liberati – Marty from MRNNet reports that Liberati, who was released as chief mechanic from Hendrick Motorsports’ Budweiser team has landed with Jimmie Johnson, the driver. Liberati will head Johnson’s 10-race NASCAR Busch Series effort in 1999. The two worked together in Homestead a few weeks ago, where Liberati was just “helping out.” Liberati will serve as crew chief and team manager for Johnson, the ASA driver, who competed in two NASCAR Busch Series races this year( Marty’s Two Cents-MRN )(12-2-98) (12-02-1998)
