Kenny Wallace loves racing and plans to keep running dirt cars until he’s 60 years old. But his time in NASCAR may not last much longer.

Wallace said Wednesday at Charlotte Motor Speedway he’s “exhausted trying to find money” from sponsors in what seems like a never-ending battle to fund his race cars. As such, the 48-year-old is unsure whether he’ll continue driving in NASCAR past the end of next season.

“I literally go to the boardrooms myself (to talk to potential sponsors),” Wallace said. “Hell, I spent $35 grand on my own DVD to present myself to these people. Every sponsor you see on those (RAB Racing) cars right now, I’ve got by myself. And I’m exhausted.”

All of Wallace’s current sponsors have told him they’re on board through 2012, he said, but there’s room for more. He publicly asked for a sponsor to help him keep racing.

“I love driving that race car,” he said. “Driving that race car is the funnest thing I ever do. … I’m just completely exhausted trying to find $100,000 to $150,000 a race.”
