Richard Childress Racing’s (RCR) Nextel Cup Series teams will honor Skip Prosser, the former Wake Forest University men’s basketball coach who died unexpectedly on Thursday, with Wake Forest decals in Sunday’s Allstate 400 at the Brickyard at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. RCR’s three Chevys driven by Kevin Harvick (#29 Reese’s), Jeff Burton (#31 AT&T) and Clint Bowyer (#07 Jack Daniel’s) will carry a Wake Forest decal on the B-Post of each machine. Scott Wimmer will also attempt to qualify the #33 Holiday Inn Chevy for this weekend’s Nextel Cup race. If the Wimmer makes the race, the #33 machine will also display the decal. “I grew up in Winston-Salem and have spent my entire life living and working in the area,” said RCR president and CEO Richard Childress. “We just want everyone in the Wake Forest Community to know that we’re thinking about them during this difficult time.” Wake Forest University is located in Winston-Salem, N.C., just 14 miles north of RCR’s campus in Welcome, N.C.(RCR PR)(7-28-2007)
