in Rockingham "All I can tell you is what Bruton told us in Daytona last February how much he loves us and he's with us forever" France said "Bruton's all right Everything will be all right" Although no additional changes are planned France could not rule out the possibility of additional dates or moving race sites "We never say never to anything" NASCAR spokesman Kevin Triplett said Smith said he will keep trying to obtain a second Winston Cup date for Texas Motor Speedway "We are actively pursuing an additional NASCAR Winston Cup race for our 1997 schedule" said Smith "We've had a long relationship with NASCAR and I know they fully understand the merits of what Texas Motor Speedway has to offer NASCAR wants to be in this important market I will continue to discuss an additional date with NASCAR and consider the door to be open" "We've known about this the schedule for a while One date is what we expected and two is what we hoped for" said Eddie Gossage vice president and general manager of Texas Motor Speedway "We've done something that have the people in Miami and Las Vegas scratching their heads Why don't they have one? This is not a closed issue" The new California Speedway outside Los Angeles is scheduled to be host of its first Winston Cup event June 22 France said the move of Talladega's second date was made because "some people thought it was kind of warm down there" in July Sponsor titles of events network coverage and the Busch Grand National and supertruck schedules will be announced later France said
