Lean Cruise

[Bob Wooten]

The article that the RSE was in was Dec 94 start there & go up (sorry but I
only keep the articles that interest me not the entire mag, easier to file
you know).  I keep in mind that it might not be in only car craft, but
another Peterson pub (i think Peterson, now EMAP).  check their web site or
racesearch.com might have something.

Lots of Luck.
BW
