Bill Davis Racing is done!

Davis seems to be one of the good guys in racing. When Benson left after winning the truck championship, you had to figure he knew they wouldn't be around and he better find another ride.
 
Bill is one of the good guys but never could get a multi-car program going successfully. I've been waiting for this to happen for years. He just couldn't compete with the big teams. :sad:
 
You think Jeff Gordon knew to begin with that BDR couldn't compete with the big guys and that is why he moved on to greener pastures?
 
JG moved back in '92 or so, well before this crunch. If he had stayed and had the same sucess, who knows where BDR would be today.

I think we haven't heard the last of cup teams folding. Not too much attention is being shown to the BUSCH series or trucks. Hard to fathom the truck champion teams folds. <shakes head>

The team hasn't folded, but rather was sold. Now how long it lasts is another question, but it hasn't folded.

I know Eddie D'Hondt buys his cars from BDR - but he fields Nationwide and ARCA.

I thought Michael Annett raced for Bill Davis. :confused:

Ultra Racing. (Wheels) Folded just days after Ted Musgrave won the Truck Championship a few years back.

And where Hendrick taught him he didn't have a prayer of hanging on to first rate talent. No offense to Ward who showed great loyalty to BDR. Imagine Ward's career if he had been racing for Hendrick, Roush, Yates or Childress.
