Hey, I'll bet Brotz and Wentzel will have a dandy fight for position! Are
they co-driving the same car???

For those not in the know, Bruce Wentzel married Mary Brotz several years
ago. Mary Brotz won three National Championships (1986, 1989-90), Mary
Wentzel then won six straight (1991-96) -- all BSPL except '89 was ESPL

FWIW, that probably means the SportsCar people knew McKinney has driven both
cars but did not know which she'd be in for Nationals. Note the second
sentence of the story: "You'd think we'd have learned by now that this is
impossible." There IS a reason I do not take part in writing this bit of
insanity which surely is designed to destroy any credibility the writers
have. I have to take care of what little I have left! :-)
Of course, if the magazine did not enjoy poking a little fun at itself, they
wouln't print up all those "SPORTSCAR WAS WRONG!" T-shirts for the Nationals
winners who were NOT their picks.
