Bobby Hamilton Jr. to drive for Nationwide team he owns at ORP
Caught in the Catchfence™Bobby Hamilton Jr. will drive for his own NASCAR Nationwide Series team in next weekend’s Kroger 200 at O’Reilly Raceway Park, team president Ronnie Russell said Saturday.
Hamilton Jr. will drive his Rensi-Hamilton Racing No. 25 Ford as a teammate to Eric McClure. Hamilton’s car will be sponsored by Eckrich, which backed the team in six events last year.
The Armour-Eckrich company backed the team last year.
Russell said the deal is for one race only and “probably won’t” turn into anything more.
“If it turned into anything, it would be no more than six races,” Russell said.
