Barfield Making a Run for Pikes Peak in the NASCAR Busch Series
UPDATE -- July 30,2004 11:00 pm -- Ron
Barfield failed to qualify in the top 38 for Saturday's NASCAR Busch
Series race. As for a provisional (the last five spots), the new car
number he was using apparently carried with it fewer points than
those who did make it in by provisional points.
TIMMONSVILLE, S.C. -- July 30, 2004 --
