The team is all under the Joe Gibbs Racing banner, and I know that J.D. Gibbs is the listed owner of I believe the 11 car in Cup, but that team is still listed under "Joe Gibbs." 11. George posted: 06.10.2017 - 9:49 am Rate this comment: (4) (0) No, NASCAR finally does it correctly and does *not* show the owner of the #11 as J.D. Gibbs or any other individual. The owner is correctly shown as "Joe Gibbs Racing". ARCA shows the owner of the #18 car in their series as being Coy Gibbs for the simple reason that he in fact is the OFFICIAL owner of that car, regardless of whether his daddy is the one supplying the money for the team or not. 12. JSPorts posted: 06.10.2017 - 9:59 am Rate this comment: (0) (0) Oh, I have noticed they have the teams listed instead of the owners on the Cup entry lists recently. But the same still goes for Xfinity, J.D. Gibbs is the listed owner of the 18 car in Xfinity. Same with a team like JRM, Dale Earnhardt Jr is listed as owner of the 1 car & 5 car, but Kelley Earnhardt-Miller is the listed owner of the 7 car and Rick Hendrick is the listed owner of the 9 car. 13. George posted: 06.10.2017 - 10:17 am Rate this comment: (0) (0) You're correct about Xfinity & Trucks and it would be nice if NASCAR cleaned up those series as far as ownership, as they have done at the Cup level. 14.

Jeff posted: 06.10.2017 - 12:53 pm Rate this comment: (4) (0) Back in the day, a single person could only be listed as the owner of two NASCAR entries. I'm not sure as to the exact reasoning. I read in a book somewhere that NASCAR tied some kind of insurance to the owner of record, or some kind of similar restriction. Whatever it was, the two-owner limitation carried well into the 1990s, not that it was typically a problem. When teams grew beyond 2-car operations, teams would get creative in terms of a declared "owner of record." Hendrick's #25 team in the later '90s was listed under "Papa Joe" Hendrick, and I believe Jeff Gordon himself was the owner of record for the #48. When Jack Roush bought Mark Rypien's #97 team, he named his mother Georgetta as the owner of record of the #97. (I think he had a team manager under the #99 and #26.) I think Walt Czarnecki was the owner of record for one of the Penske entries. Obviously NASCAR didn't forbid teams from having third and fourth cars, but some other team principal had to be named on the entry blank. Of course, under the charter system, a single team is allowed three charters (four for those operations that were grandfathered in), and those are listed under the team name. So that cleans it up a lot. The other series don't function under a charter system yet, so they probably retain that two-cars-per-owner-of-record limitation to this day. (You used to see it early in the season when teams retained the owner of record of the points they'd just bought.) For fun, look up the ARCA results in the late '90s to early 2000s. Many times, a team would lease out their owner points to keep them high in the standings for provisionals. I'm not sure if ARCA used the Golden-A program back then. But for instance, Bobby Gerhart would run the speedway races, and then you'd see Wes Russell, Randy VanZant and Jerry Middleton using the #5 or #85 at the short tracks campaigning as "Gerhart-Russell Racing" or "Gerhart-Middleton Racing." Bob Hill would run the speedways and dirt races for Clement Racing's #46 and Frank Kimmel's DanKen team would run the #46 on their short track cars until the two teams merged operations. And at one point, Wayne Peterson's team Web site took credit for the results of a fair number of teams that used the #6 or #16 owner points he'd amassed. 16.

How does Wayne Peterson make a living entering multiple cars every week and more often than not they start n park and finish way down? 18. Kevin Nauta posted: 06.11.2017 - 12:28 am Rate this comment: (3) (0) @House of Penske: Multiple cars mean multiple paychecks. If you're starting and parking the cars, you aren't spending buckets of money on tires and fuel or preparing them in any way other than the basic minimum to show up and start. It is what you do when you lack sponsorship and driving talent but still want to run a team. Wayne's been doing this for years. It is what he loves, just as much as James Hylton does. Put a decent driver in the car with a passable sponsorship package and stuff happens. Go back to 2015 when James Swanson had lead lap top ten finishes for BOTH Wayne and James. 19.

Rohrbaugh's car was very fast during the race as well, until ARCA forced a number of chassis changes on the car during their first stop, losing a lot of time and some speed in the process. 21. rm posted: 06.11.2017 - 10:48 pm Rate this comment: (0) (0) To the rear - 77 - backup car; 28 - engine change; 0 - driver choice; 57 - unknown??? 22. rm posted: 06.12.2017 - 12:07 am Rate this comment: (0) (0) Also, make - 2 - Ford, 52 might have been a Toyota again but I'll have to go back and look before saying anything for certain. 23.

Connections must be point to point.' Crew chief Matt Weber has been fined $1500 and car owner Briggs Cunningham and driver Ty Majeski have been penalized with the loss of 25 championship points as a result of the violation.

ARCA wants as big of a field as possible (that's why they were so slow at kicking out Roger Carter.) 2.) Even though they want as big as a field as possible they really don't want the unsafe Hixon and Peterson cars to run full distance. 3.) Even though its not really relevent now a days a lot of teams (mainly because of how the prvisional system in ARCA worked) would enter a second full time car park it or sell the owners points off to other teams whenever they had a chance. 28.

Definitely the best run for a car fielded by Dauzat/Rahilly, the team's best finish to date isn't much higher with an 11th at Talladega in 2018. (Which, it should be noted, came in a race where Dauzat spun out after the white flag, but that's getting off topic here) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ *Post a comment:* Your comment may not appear immediately - all comments must be approved by the moderator.
