Archangel Motorsport Services has announced that it will again attempt the Rolex 24 with NASCAR veteran Derrike Cope, Chris Bingham, Brian DeVries and Larry Oberto. Archangel Motorsports Services, Inc., will field their #21 Nissan-powered Lola which won its class at the Rolex 24 in 2001 and finished second in 2002. “We’re very busy right now,” said team owner Mike Johnson. “We’re getting a little bit of a late start and are working very hard getting the car ready for the new SRPII rules.” In addition to his proven success running a championship sports car racing organization, Johnson is well known for his role as a cast member on MTV’s critically acclaimed “The Real World IV – London.” Cope, the 1990 Daytona 500 champion, will be Bingham’s coach and consultant for both his 2003 Busch Series and Winston Cup programs.( ThatsRacin.com )(1-21-2003)
