Symns
helped build race cars and changed enough tires and
he longed to sit in the hot seat come race night. "I
typed up a letter to Randy and I put it off and put
it off giving it to him," Symns said. "one
time when he came in, I asked my friend what he
thought of [of the letter]. He told me that I would
never know until I gave it to [Moss]. All he could
do was say no.
"I gave
it to him and he took it [to his advisors]. It was
all a go after that. Things started happening pretty
quickly. Now i have my chance and it's exciting."
Symns
recruited some of the best racing minds in the area
to help him, including Mike Sampson and Rick Lucas,
who helped put together the blue No. 34 car that
features Moss' name and number.
"He's
making Linc's dream come true, " said Donnie Jones,
the friend that Symns bounces his idea off of.
Jones is also a close friend of Moss and an employee
of RGM Enterprises.
"For
Moss to come home and do this for someone in our
community, that's a big thing," said Jones.
