First Union / Wachovia. Benny P ran that car; and I doubt it made folks
run right out and open a new passbook savings account.

Have you seen some of NASCAR's lady fans? They NEED to visit a Figure
Salon.

And I always have a soft spot for the Underalls car....

Yup. Walk in to a bar in these parts where they're watchin'
a NASCAR race: Nothin' but ball caps, beer guts, Marlboros
hanging from lips, and flannel shirts. Then there's the men...

I don't think too many people care about the ITT Industries, Systems
Division, part of the title sponsor of last years

"ITT Industries, Systems Division and Goulds Pumps Salute to the Troops
250 Presented By Dodge" at PPIR.

But Garnier Fructis is probably the most likely candidate. I don't see
too many NASCAR fans using that mess. "Garnier?!? I ain't puttin no
French crap in my hair!"

Wellbutrin (sp?) Isn't this an anti-depressant? Lord knows that us rednecks
use beer and tobacco as anti-depressants. It was on B-Lab's car a few times
the past couple of seasons, the times his car was basically all purple,
IIRC.

Both. Terry Labonte drove Billy Hagen's #44 Piedmont Airlines Chevrolet
Monte Carlo SS. When Terry left Hagen's team, Marlin stepped into the ride.
The car also changed from a Monte Carlo SS to an Oldsmobile Cutlass,
retained Piedmont Airlines as the primary sponsor and added Underalls as an
"ass"ociate sponsor, appropriately on the "rear" of the car.

manufacturer?

Vassarette recently sponsored Tina Gordon in the CTS, but prior to that
there was the Lovables bras truck driven by Tammy Jo Kirk.

I don't dial 911, I dial 1911 instead.
Yep, thanks for jogging my memory on both! It was Tammy Jo Kirk &
Lovables that I couldn't remember!
