He's a World Champion road course driver for Lamborghini.

Josh gets his first last-place finish since joining the 98 team in 2013, leaves right after. That's two drivers leaving Premium Motorsports in consecutive weeks, Gaughan having left the 62 after Daytona. Methinks the team revealed it's about to start-and-park again, and both drivers said "Hell no."

Yeah, that was my guess. Gaughan knows he can get a ride in Trucks at the least, probably, and Wise is probably dumb enough to think people cared about him as a driver and not as a convenient way to get a meme on TV

Gaughan has the 62 xfinity ride locked down for next year, I think.

I'm sure Wise can find something, or get back in Juniors good graces.

E: I would not be opposed to a Wise/Smith combo at JRM for 2016.

Two of the three main contenders for 1993's NASCAR Rookie of the Year retiring in the same season (Jeff Gordon being one of the others). Fellow ROTY class member Bobby Labonte remains running part-time in the #32 after Terry hung it up last year.

e- I'm not making another post since I'm already talking this here: I love four-bangers. They're worth the price of admission at my local track, they've just never done that. I do remember a Late Model feature where all but about four cars wrecked on the first lap because the track was blocked & there was nowhere to go.

Most four banger races at my local track are more about how many letters you can put after a 3 and who flips over first, but they always run them last after the late model feature and everyone gets up to leave like a herd of dumb rednecks.

Also feel super dumb for just now realizing Eldora was next week.

Edit - I forgot about the two 15ish year old brothers that Vettel the whole field every week in cars that look more like late models then mini stocks.
