Though Crocker has risen quickly through the stock-car ranks, Evernham won't rush his prized talent. He had scheduled Crocker to drive full time in next season's Busch Series, NASCAR's top minor-league circuit, but after crashes in her first two Busch starts, she will...

...center-right, most naturally the Tory-style Act, led by the wisecracking Rodney Hide. But Act's nine list seats could be wiped out on present polling, victims of National's resurgence. To shore up its vote and become the third force in national politics that leader Winston Peters aspires to, New Zealand First is taking a "pox on both your houses" attitude: it will not be in a coalition with either of the major parties.
