After seeing a few teams already fold, and some driver retiring, finally, we racefans get some good news. As previously reported, HP Motorsports can't afford to field a car in 2010, and also previously reported, Troy Wink can't afford to field his own operation for 2010. The solution; Wink and HP Motorsports will be teaming up for 2010, combining Troy Wink's team and the HP Motorsports team. The team will compete at Big Diamond Raceway on Fridays, and will run Saturdays at Grandview Speedway. Also, look for the team to travel to some select small block races at tracks like Hagerstown and Delaware, and possibly Selinsgrove.
Also, as for HP Motorsports former driver Ryan Watt, who also lost his Saturday night BPG Motorsports ride, look for Watt to team up with Ron Roberts Racing in a second team car (the first, of course, driven by Roberts) for weekly competition at Bridgeport Speedway.Nothing is official yet.
Also, rumors are swirling that Tom Cullen Racing, who ran part-time this past season with Matt Sheppard behind the wheel of the #1WBG small block modified, will be replacing Sheppard with Stewart Friesen in 2010. Cullen is interested in running weekly again, as opposed to specials-only, which is all Matt Sheppard's schedule allows him to do. Once again, nothnig is official yet.
