Hanley un-retired?

A reader sent me a link to a website announcing that Canadian stock car legend Junior Hanley has ended his brief retirement and will be racing a limited schedule for Hight Motorsports in 2006 ....

"Throughout the fall and winter months many fans and friends of Hight Motorsports have asked the question of who will drive the car and where next year. Today we would like to announce that Junior Hanley will pilot the Hight Chevrolet Monte Carlo in 2006. As of right now the plan is only to run a few big races. You can expect to see the team at the TD Bank North Oxford 250 as well as the 300 lap Beech Ridge race. You may see the team participate in one or two other events but that will be determined later on. With this announcement the Hight Motorsports team is shifting back into high gear preparing for the 2006 race season. Next week the team will be hauling the car to Ontario to Junior Hanley’s race shop. Hanley will prepare the Hight Chevrolet Monte Carlo for another year of racing. The rear clip and fuel cell will be replaced as well as the interior. Then a new 2006 Monte Carlo ABC Five Star body will be installed. Finally a few other chassis and geometry adjustments will be made. "
