#4-Mike Wallace and the GEICO/Sport Clips team, winners of the Winn-Dixie
250 at Daytona International Speedway on July 2 hopes to make it two in a row on Saturday in the Twister 300 at Chicagoland Speedway. For Fred Biagi, the team owner, it was his first NASCAR Busch Series win. For Wallace, the victory was his second at Daytona as he won the inaugural Truck Series race there in 2000, his last win came in 2001 in a Winston West event. The team has only eight full-time employees and only four of them have any real experience. Wallace and Biagi are constantly hunting for more money to grow the program and the car has a lot of room for associate sponsors, GEICO is the team’s primary sponsor at 24 of the 34 Busch Series races. For example, they need a sponsor for the New England 200 at New Hampshire International Speedway on July 24. And after talking with Mike Hillman (crew chief on the #50 Nextel Cup car owned by Don Arnold that Wallace drove Saturday night), they are going to change three or four things on the front end.
