Crocker Mistaken for Kahne’s Girlfriend/ Kinser Scores Martinsville Sponsorship/ TV Listings

My Memories of Paul Dana
Later today, I will post images and memories of when Paul Dana drove for Hemelgarn 91 Johnson Motorsports. I enjoyed being around him and as I have already mentioned earlier this week, Paul was a very driven man. My memories and images of Paul Dana can be found at http://openwheeler.blogspot.com

Crocker Mistaken for Kahne’s Girlfriend
In her latest journal entry on NASCAR.com, Erin Crocker says she is often mistaken for Kasey Kahne’s PR person or girlfriend. “Sometimes when I'm hanging outside the hauler people think I'm his PR girl and say, "Can you get this signed for me?'' I'm like, "I'm not the person to ask.'' About the girlfriend mistaken identity Crocker tells fans, "No, we're just teammates.''
