New #97 Car Chief: #97 Crew Chief Jimmy Fennig moved quickly to replace veteran car chief Shawn Parker, who left Roush for Robert Yates Racing [#38] at the end of the season. Fennig lured chief mechanic Mike Kelly from the #19 Evernham Motorsports crew. “His knowledge of racecars is incredible,” Fennig says of Kelly. “He’s a racer’s racer and is tuned in to both chassis and aerodynamics, which should help us a lot with next year’s rules.”(Sporting News)(12-2-2002)
