More on Rusty’s ‘cheating’ comments:

Rusty Wallace said this week he really didn’t mean to directly accuse Chevrolet teams of cheating at Daytona in a widely reported comment he made before last weekend’s race at Rockingham, but he didn’t back too far away from saying there were some shenanigans. “I’m not making comments about any Chevrolet team,” Wallace said. “I just thought there were a lot of peculiar things going on and NASCAR has informed me they’re going to be for everybody at Talladega. “I’m not going to say it was Chevrolet. I think peculiar things were going on with Ford and all kind of different makes that didn’t make sense with the way they qualified and the way they ran in the race and things like that. I did say the word Chevrolet. I didn’t just mean it was Chevrolets. I saw a lot of peculiar things across the board, and the NASCAR guys did, too. They just informed me that they’d be looking at them really hard at Talladega.”( ThatsRacin.com ), see past news and rumors about this on my #2 Team News and Links page .(3-1-2003)
