Ward Taking Saturday Off:

  • #0-Ward Burton, ran 45 laps in Thursday’s practice for the Coca-Cola 600 at Lowe’s Motor Speedway, concentrating on race runs as he will miss Happy Hour practice on Saturday to attend the high school graduation of his daughter, Sarah. The team is undecided if it will run at all on Saturday and if it does, Jason Leffler, who runs for the team in the Busch Series would likely practice the #0 NetZero Chevy.(Speed Channel’s Qualifying Coverage)(5-28-2004)
