New faces, new places.(Brief Article)

That Scott Pruett T-shirt you wore last season when he drove the No. 32 Ford--OK, somebody out there had one--still is good for something. Dusting furniture. Cleaning windows.

Just don't wear it to the race track. Pruett got canned at the last minute--long after the season ended--and now Ricky Craven is in the car.

When the green flag falls February 18 for the Daytona 500, you'll need a program to match up the drivers who have new rides.

Jason Leffler, No. 01 Dodge, Chip Ganassi Racing. Hiring an unproven rookie isn't the first outrageous move that four-time CART champion owner Chip Ganassi has made in his motorsports career, but it might be his worst in Winston Cup.

Robby Gordon, No. 4 Chevrolet, Morgan-McClure Motorsports. Apparently disenchanted with geriatric poster boy Bobby Hamilton, Larry McClure found some new blood to pump into the operation. Should McClure get his equipment in order, Gordon might be the transfusion he needs.

Mike Wallace, No. 7 Ford, Ultra Motorsports. After three years in the Craftsman Truck Series, Wallace returns to Winston Cup. The team switched to Fords in the offseason, and the addition of crew chief Tim Brewer should make a difference.

Bill Elliott, No. 9 Dodge, Evernham Motorsports. After relinquishing the responsibilities of ownership to Ray Evernham, Awesome Bill hopes to have his best season since he won five races for Junior Johnson in 1992. It won't be easy.
