McReynolds and Tide:

As rumored here a week or so ago, Larry McReynolds, currently the crew chief of the #31 Lowes RCR Chevy, said Friday that one of two sponsors he and partner John Dangler had been talking to was Procter & Gamble, the company that makes Tide, about their own Cup race team for 2000. Tide is, of course, leaving the #10 Ricky Rudd team and is negotiating with Precision Preparation, a CART team. McReynold’s says Tide was nervous about going with his ‘new’ team, “They kind of threw that theory out the window yesterday”, in reference to the PPI negotiations. McReynolds said he has one more company he’s working with, but that time for working on his plans for his own team is running out( That’s Racin’ )
