This will most likely be the end of the Worko 94 wonder what will happen with the Magee 11?
Guess the Destiny car is history to with the mech. going elsewhere.

Did you see this for a fact somewhere?

I won't presume to speak for Murphy, but I'm sure that was sarcasm.

Of course I didn't see it as a fact somewhere. This is the internet. I saw it about 10-12 posts down from this one in a thread entitled PA Rumor, started by drw40 on December 9th.

On the Heffner / Smith pair, imo this is a great hire. This may be slightly hyperbolic but I'm not sure there is a driver as highly respected as Ryan is in the pits by locals and travelers alike. Yeah I know there are a bunch of drivers that are very highly thought of by competitors and Ryan is up there. He can wheel too. The team may have some growing pains with a new driver and crew chief but this is a good long term hire and partnership imo. Congrats to both.

This is a good hire. Ryan proved that he could compete with the All Stars on a shoe string budget for a few years He did a nice job last year jumping into the McGhee #11 and got that team on the right track. His All Star win at Selinsgrove showed what he could do with a little money behind him. Wonder what will happen to the #11 team?

Someone said on another message board that McGhee stated on Indiana Open Wheel that he was returning to the All Stars. No driver named so take it for what it is worth. One of those heard it from a friend of a friend who knew someone that saw somebody say something type deals.
Happy for Smith and Heffner. Will miss seeing Ryan Smith race against the All Stars here in Ohio as he was a good quality driver.

Heard last season that the Warko team was not in good shape financially. That sucks as that was a really strong team a few years ago. Another car gone I suppose, a sign of the times. Ryan's a good hire for Heffner though. I can't think of a better fit. Didn't Ryan wheel the 27 a few times when he was first starting out in 410's? May have been another 27 or perhaps faulty memory.

At a track where you can pass, so he earned it that day.
How many Outlaw wins (for both woo and Posse drivers) at Williams Grove are basically won with the pill draw?
