The new WWF tag team champions, Nikolai Volknoff and The Iron Shiek will tangle with a couple of tough newcomers to this country, The English Bulldogs.

These two are greased lightning. The balance of the card is made up of some of the outstanding wrestlers in the country. Ivan "Polish Power" Putski will meet Matt Borne, while Playboy Buddy Rose returns to the area after a long absence to tangle with Tommy "Wildfire" Rich. Jim Niedhart goes against George Wells and Bob Bradley will open the program with a tussle with the popular Brett Hart. The bouts will get under way.

Rudd believes car's chassis setup is going to be the determining factor in deciding who wins the $200,000 the largest first-place prize in NASCAR Winston Cup history. "'That's why, the last practice session Will. be so important, says Rudd.

"That session will determine how you set your car up. "In most races, if your car is not handling right when the race starts, you can just take it easy and concentrate on staying in the same lap with the leaders until you get a chance to pit and make an adjustment. But that is not going to be the case in The Winston. "First," adds the 28-year-old driver, "the race is only 105 miles (70 laps) long, not 500 or 600 miles as, is usually the case. Second, there will be only one pit stop (the mandatory stop 30 for and right 40).

Winston Cop Ricky Rudd not handling properly when The Winston begins. "You are going to have to the he states. "You are going to have to drive over you head. Even if it is not comfortable and you are really extending yourself, you are going to have to do it to have any shot at winning The Winston. the race pays too much not to man-handle the car for 30 or 40 laps if that is what it takes to win it." But Rudd doesn't want to be put in that position.

That's why he and car owner Bud Moore plan to spend a lot of race week "talking about the chassis and what setup will work at that time of day after a 300-mile race (the Winn-Dixie 300 for the Busch Late Model Troopers Involved With Special Olympic Projects NEWARK 'Delaware State troopers at Troops 2 and 9 have planned two different activities in May to benefit the Delaware Special Olympics.
