From the car numbers, my guess would be he made a last minute deal to get the #5 that would normally have been owned by Bobby Waddell and driven by Bob Presnell. Presnell completed just one lap in a Ford owned by Crider and running as #62, which Crider often used. Maybe it was obvious before the race the tranny on that car was going out, and a deal was struck. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ *Post a comment:* Your comment may not appear immediately - all comments must be approved by the moderator.
