Trevor Bayne doing well but doesn't seating chart continental airlines arena want an MS campaign to support his racing: #21-Trevor Bayne doesnt mind telling his story about racing with multiple sclerosis, but hes not interested in having that define him. Bayne, who won the 2011 Daytona 500 but then missed part of that season because of fatigue and double vision, announced in November that he had been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. He has not had any symptoms in the offseason and is ready for the 2014 season, the Roush Fenway Racing driver said Monday during the Sprint Media Tour. Bayne, who finished sixth in the Nationwide Series standings in 2013, will run the full Nationwide season while also competing in at least a dozen Cup races for Wood Brothers Racing. While Roush Fenway seating chart continental airlines arena landed AdvoCare seating chart continental airlines arena as a sponsor for Baynes Nationwide car, he obviously could run more Cup races with more sponsorship. seating chart continental airlines arena For now, Bayne isnt interested in doing any campaigns that center around his multiple sclerosis. I dont want to be a racecar driver seating chart continental airlines arena because I have a campaign behind him  I want to earn my spot here, said Bayne, who often talks about his deep religious faith. That doesnt seating chart continental airlines arena really interest me at this point, but I definitely want to be a spokesperson for anybody seating chart continental airlines arena going through anything tough and see that with Jesus, you can overcome anything. Thats my message. Its not just about MS. Bayne said he trains three hours a day, which includes running seating chart continental airlines arena and swimming as well as biking. He has not had to alter his training program. Healthwise I feel great. & With no symptoms, theres no worries, Bayne said. If I got down the road in six months and I noticed something, I would definitely see a doctor about it. At this point, I havent had to do any of that. I do go back for checkups regularly and get their input because it would be not so smart not to do that. So far, its all been positive. I can go hard in training and push myself way harder out of the car than I do in the car.( seating chart continental airlines arena Sporting News )(1-30-2014)

Daytona 500 Winner Trevor seating chart continental airlines arena Bayne Diagnosed with MS: Daytona 500 winner and Roush Fenway Racing (RFR) driver Trevor Bayne has announced that he has been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis seating chart continental airlines arena ( explanation of MS ). Bayne - 22 years old - has undergone extensive testing at the Mayo Clinic and has been cleared by doctors and NASCAR to compete behind the wheel. "I've never been more driven seating chart continental airlines arena to compete," said Bayne. "My goals are the same as they've been since I started racing. I want to compete at the highest level and I want to win races and championships. I am in the best shape I've ever been in and I feel good," added Bayne. "There are currently no symptoms and I'm committed to continuing seating chart continental airlines arena to take the best care of my body as possible. I will continue to trust God daily and know that His plan for me is what is best. As for now, I want to close out the season strong this weekend at Homestead and then shift my focus on getting ready to compete for the NASCAR Nationwide Series (NNS) Championship in 2014.

Wood Brothers expects Bayne to return, similar schedule in 2014: As a NASCAR staple through seven decades, Wood Brothers Racing is among stock car racing's best-known and most popular teams. It's been around since 1953, when Glen Wood and his brothers, Leonard, Delano and Ray Lee began fielding shade-tree cars at short dirt tracks in southern Virginia and central North Carolina. In 1,405 Sprint Cup entries since 1953 the team has 118 poles and 98 victories, including Daytona 500s with Cale Yarborough, David Pearson, A.J. Foyt, Trevor seating chart continental airlines arena Bayne and Tiny Lund. It has 337 top-five finishes, 521 top-10 finishes and has earned upwards of $50 million with 42 drivers. Even with that resume, WBR isn't exactly seating chart continental airlines arena flush with sponsorship. It ran less than half the races in 2009, 2010 and 2012 (and exactly half in 2011), and Bayne will run only 12 of 36 this year. It's not ideal, but the Woods have little choice.
"With sponsorship like it is, we have to pick races that give us the best chance of a good payback," team co-owner seating chart continental airlines arena Eddie Wood said last weekend at Talladega. seating chart continental airlines arena "It's just good business: the more you can win, the more you have to keep going forward. We've skipped some races this year that were close to home [the Charlotte area] because the payout wasn't very good. But we've gone to some races way off because the payout made it worthwhile. It's all about surviving to race again."
The team would love to run more, but [it's doing] the best it can do right now. "We're always hunting for sponsorships and trying to add races," Wood said. "And, really, it's getting seating chart continental airlines arena a little better; it's beginning to open up some. A few years ago it was hard to get people to even call you back about sponsoring seating chart continental airlines arena a race. It was really tough there for a while, but people are more open to listen seating chart continental airlines arena now. At least here lately, they seem more interested."
Wood said it's too early to talk much about 2014. He said he and his brother, team co-owner Len Wood, expect to run at least the same schedule, maybe adding seating chart continental airlines arena a few races if more sponsors come along. seating chart continental airlines arena Nothing is set in stone, either, regarding Bayne and his role, but they "fully expect" him back in their Cup car even as he runs the full Nationwide Series schedule for Roush Fenway. Regardless of what else happens, this much is true: "You'll never see us become a start-and-park team," Eddie Wood said defiantly. "Not our family, not this team, not as far as we've come since the '50s and as much as we've done in racing. We'll do what we can and we'll do it properly, or we won't do it at all. And you can write that down."( seating chart continental airlines arena Autoweek )(10-24-2013)
