UPDATE: Cope is now listed at the driver of the #49 Dodge on the NASCAR.com entry list and is being reported as driving the car on the BAM Racing site. UPDATE 2: Former Daytona 500 champion Derrike Cope will be behind the wheel of Bam Racing’ #49 Dodge this week at Michigan Speedway’ NASCAR Winston Cup event. Car owner Elizabeth Ann Morgenthau made the announcement today, as well as announcing the renowned rock music group Poison will be on the car as a sponsor. Shawna Robinson, BAM Racing’ regular driver, is expected to return behind the wheel by the team’ next superspeedway race in Darlington. “Our long-term plans very much include Shawna Robinson. I dont want there to be any question about that,” Morgenthau said. “This, however, gives us a chance to work with Derrike, to learn from him and to continue building our program.”(Williams Company PR)(8-14-2002)
