Wells and Marlin? Benson? UPDATE:

The plan was for Wells to field a Busch and Winston Cup car this year, with McDonald’s and Lazzaro jumping to Winston Cup next season. But those plans are obviously changing, though Wells isn’t yet disclosing what he expects to happen. Rumors have Wells talking with a couple of veteran NASCAR drivers, with one being Sterling Marlin, about taking over the McDonald’s ride in 2001. Wells also is looking for more help in preparing the cars, so he might be interested in someone like veteran crew chief Tony Glover, a longtime buddy of Marlin’s(in part from CBS Sportsline) AND also hearing Wells has talked to Johnny Benson of the #10 Lycos team and to James Ince, crew chief for the same team UPDATE: from Tyler Jet Motorsports – our committment now is to stay together as a TEAM right where we are(5-31-2000)
