A short track somewhere
It was only a matter of time, the kid tore up all of Circle Bar Racing's trucks last year and they went out of business. Looks like James Finch has had enough. Ryan Newman will be in the #1 car at Dover, Buescher will drive for Turner Motorsports.

I wonder how long it'll take for Turner Motorsports to fire him. I predict Buescher will be back in ARCA, where he belongs, before September.
 
Doesn't shock me because I think he's crashed every race this year. He only got the job because he won a plate race in Arca or something like that I think.
 
yeah but I still prefer a younger guy crashing every race to another cup guy:mad:
 
Another cup guy jez.

Anyone find a bit of Irony in all of this. Nationwide guys cant keep up with the Cup guys so car owners fire Nationwide guys and hire Cup guys adding more cup guys that Nationwide drivers cant beat. If it wasnt for Justin Allgaier I would say get rid of the series and make Arca the feeder series. But then again what would stop them from taking over Arca?

I think the days of callingthe Nationwide Series the "feeder series" is over.

They didn't get rid of Buescher because he couldn't contend, they got rid of him because he couldn't bring the cars home in one piece. You can't contend for wins if you're behind the wall every week.

Stenhouse is exactly like Buscher. I don't think those guys understand that the Nationwide Series is nothing like the ARCA Series. The ARCA races are so short that you have to drive your ass off every lap. Of course, racing for WinTron and Roush in ARCA doesn't hurt either.
 
As far as Cup guys taking over ARCA, I don't think it'll happen. The costs outweigh the benefits. For one, ARCA runs a completely different tire so you can't carry too many notes over from ARCA to Spitcup. Second of all, the payouts aren't very good. Costs more to run the car than the race pays out.

I'm guessing Turner motorsports is somehow a family team. It is the same team that he won the ASA Late Model Series South Championship in, he also drove in Hooters Pro Cup for them.

I don't know. I've seen their cars pop up in ARCA before, I think with Ricky Carmichael.
