Evernham Motorsports extends Jeremy Mayfield's contract

 

 

October 22, 2003

 

STATESVILLE, N.C. (AP) -- Jeremy Mayfield signed a contract extension with Evernham Motorsports through 2005.

 

``Jeremy Mayfield remains a valuable asset to our organization,'' team president and CEO Ray Evernham said Wednesday. ``We have learned and accomplished a lot in the two years that Jeremy has been with our organization.''

 

Mayfield was 26th in the points and had only two top-five finishes and four top-10s in his first season driving the No. 19 Dodge for the Evernham's team. With only four races remaining this season, Mayfield is 20th in the standings and has three top-fives and nine top-10s.

 

The 10-year Winston Cup veteran, whose last of three wins came in 2000 when he was driving for Penske-Kranefuss Racing, has been the subject of speculation throughout the season that his job was in jeopardy.

 

``Over the past few years, driving for Evernham Motorsports has been the best opportunity for me to showcase my strengths as a driver,'' Mayfield said. ``That's why I'm excited that we are going to continue what we started out to do.

 

``Our team has pulled together, and were beginning to show what we are capable of on a weekly basis.''

 

Bill Elliott, who also drives for Evernham, is 10th in the standings.

      I wasn’t commenting on your post. Certainly wasn’t arguing. I was making an observation on my long term experience with supposedly proper length of driving for proper heat cycles. Works for me. Although I have seen water or vapor come out of exhaust when vehicles weren’t run very long and shut off. It’s very humid in the morning. Then hot and humid.

      Not what I said but I can work with it anyway. Complete combustion produces CO2 and H20. When it's cold enough you can 'see' it as water vapor but it is always there and more so the better the tune up. It's physics, not an argument. In a cold motor when the cylinder jacket is below the condensation temperature the water goes to the pan and not the PCV system. Heating the oil moves it from liquid to vapor where it is removed by the PCV system. When and how much depends on temperatures. Of the air, the water and so on. It has little to with the humidity. Water is a combustion product.

      2 speed transfer case optional now?

      I can only guess as well that something was clicked on that brought you to the half ton choices by accident. By all means try again and chose the 3500 and sort out that its the cab and box configuration you want and choose four wheel drive ( rather obvious to have a transfer case ) and to make sure the dually isn't chosen. I find or at least did a couple of years ago when I was sifting through the options that it would sometimes jump ahead after choosing the series of truck and in this case 3500 and skip some of the other initial configuration choices and have to watch the heading bar and sometimes back up by choosing the first in the series of option break downs. I think sometimes the computer will remember items that were last chosen and skip over the first part. Anyway go through it all and depending on the trim level chosen and I think the LT is one that may fall into that where the option of having the 4 high auto transfer case can be chosen, where as a High Country doesn't show that option as it just comes with the fancier ( not necessarily better though in terms of potential problems ) transfer case but for sure both transfer case choices are equipped with high and low range in the HD truck segment. Like Newdude said who works at a dealership, its the half tons that are the ones that will come with the single speed unless certain options or trim levels are chosen that add the two speed transfer case but as your looking at an HD, you don't have to worry about that hot mess.    One item that at least didn't show up and not sure if it does yet or not in the HD options on the manufactures pubic website is the upfitter in cab switch option if one is desiring that. Unfortunately its not wired in at the factory but the panel with the switches is on the dash but the wiring harness to be installed gets tossed under the rear seat to be installed by whomever after the fact to complete the installation.

      Yesterday we brought home a 6yr  old Havanese dog from a nearby SPCA.  We've had her for 24 hours and we are delighted with how well she is adjusting to her new home.  It  was a huge decision to adopt a dog at this stage in our lives but we believe we made the right choice!   it was reported that her first 6 years were ones of neglect.  I think she's already realizing her life is going to get a whole lot better...  so is ours!
