Benson Poised For Daytona 500 Comeback After Sponsorship
Daytona Beach AP Benson, 37, carries strong 1995 Daytona memory as he starts sixth in qualifying for the 11 million prize race. Last year he led 39 laps before a pack of Fords chasing Dale Jarrett swept the field. Benson finished 12th. This year Valvoline sponsors and partial ownership boost team stability and testing time.
