That URL doesn't seem to work.  Got any other ideas?

(although doesn't) own the Daytona, Darlington, and Watkins Glen tracks.
Also, why don't you change your company's name back to Union 76?

Funny you should ask about the name.  The refining and marketing
division (of which I work) of Unocal Corp. has recently been sold to an
independent oil refiner Tosco Corp.  Tosco has acquired rights to use
the 76 ball and also the name Union 76.  The deal closes on Monday the
31st.  After that date, Tosco is allowed to use the name Unocal for only
two years. So you will probably begin to see the name changing back
gradually over the next two years.  

Also, and I'm sure you probably know this, Unocal is licensed by Nascar
as the sole producer of fuel for the races.  Tosco has acquired this
license and as far as I know will continue to produce the fuel and
market it at the tracks as Union 76.

I won't be going on to work for Tosco so after monday I will be "out of
the loop" on any new developments.
