I noticed the number change on the qual order and went looking to find that jayski already spoted it and dug up infor about it!
-------
#14 or #50? noticed something on NASCAR.com's New Hampshire Entry List. Larry Foyt is now listed in the #50 car, NOT the #14 car, which is no longer in the list. Did the team change numbers? Is it a mistake? Are they gonna run a 2nd car? No idea and have found nothing about it.
UPDATE: been told it was AJ Foyt's choice and that is all that is being said.
UPDATE 2 - sort of: A.J. Foyt Racing's Winston Cup entry will run with the No. 50 on the Dodge that Larry Foyt will drive in this weekend's New England 300 at New Hampshire International Speedway, according to the entry lists posted on several Web sites. Jayski.ThatsRacin.com reports that team owner A.J. Foyt decided to use the number instead of the No. 14 that has been used throughout this difficult season that has seen rookie Larry Foyt stuck in 42nd in the Winston Cup standings with no top-10 finishes in his 12 races to date.(Winston Cup Scene Daily Newsletter)
Speculation has that Foyt doesn't want to use the one (1) provisional left for the #14 car and save it for Indy in two weeks, if they ran the #14 this week and was not in the top 36 in speed, they would be charged a provisional, it is NOT their choice to use it or not. So the team supposedly is using the #50, which has been used by the team in the past [last year for instance] and probably will use it at Pocono.(7-18-2003)
