                 GLENN ALLEN NOTES & QUOTES: GATEWAY 300

MADISON, IL - RIS - Quotes from Glenn Allen, 1996 Raybestos Rookie of The 
Year:

"I can't wait to race this weekend at Gateway. Going to a new track and a new 
market is always exciting. We have done really well at both Texas and Las
Vegas, two of the other new tracks this year. We had a top ten in Vegas and
were running in the top ten at Texas before we got in an accident. Being one
of the younger guys on the circuit, anytime we go to a new track the
experience factor becomes more even."

"I am headed to St. Louis with a lot of confidence and momentum. We have 
contended in the last two races and are looking to do the same this weekend.
Crew Chief John Monsam has really added a lot to our team over the last two
races. The guys are all working real hard and I want to continue to reward
them with solid races."
