Nascar Sprint Cup Series 2016 Silly Season

rumored to be full time not known if it would be all at RCR or partially with Circle Sport

Monster Energy has finally decided to give Kurt Busch a sponsorship deal. No words on how many races yet.

Updated the Charts. Anything in Yellow is new to that team

Penske is planning to have a 4 car team by 2017 meaning we could see Ryan Blaney in the car with Penske by next year. Now I have no idea who will be the 4th guy. It could be Tyler Reddick or Danial Hemric but I feel they won't have enough experience by 2017 since they are staying in trucks for another season. So this could mean that Penske could steal Chris Buescher from Roush if possible. Buescher would most likely replace Blaney if he moves to Penske. We could be seeing Buescher in a Wood Brothers car next season.

Ryan Blaney full time in the Wood Brothers 21 in 2016

And Ortho will not sponsor Greg Biffle next season leaving him with Roush-based sponsorship.

Matt DiBenedetto is expected to run another season with BK Racing. He has tons of talent and is an underrated racer so I am not surprised at this decision if it goes through.

Front Row has a lot of things coming next season so here it is:
1. New engine manufacturer- They said Ford has a lot of things coming in that they might not be able to keep up with so they will be moving to Toyota, but would most likely be in an alliance with RCR. This could lead to their next big thing.
2. Driver Lineup- It is not confirmed yet but they have some rumors/interest. One of those drivers are Brian Scott because he could bring in a lot of sponsorship deals as he is still a 'young' talent. It is expected that David Gilliland and Cole Whitt will return to the team but not confirmed.

I heard that the rumor from Front Row was that they would be cutting back to a two car team although if they switched to Chevy I could buy a Brian Scott thing especially if there was an alliance to RCR

3M will be sponsoring Chase Elliott next season for 5 races

Quicken Loans to sponsor Kasey Kahne now over Newman in 2016

Quicken Loans is now Kasey Kahne's Sponsor for 2016 after sponsoring Ryan Newman for a couple of years with Stewart Hass and RCR.

Darrell Wallace Jr is now in the talk for the Richard Petty ride to replace Sam Hornish Jr.
Charts Updated

Former Swan Racing owner and co-owner of BK Racing is sell his side of BK. This means that BK will most likely go back to a 2 car team again. What Anthony Marlowe is trying to do is to get enough funding to start up his own team again with sponsorship and hospitality help from Iowa Speedway. He plans to put the team in South Dakota though?

kinda beat ya to that lol

Brian Scott official as the driver of the 9

That's new

With the move to RPM, Brian Scott will bring over his sponsors Shore Lodge and Albertsons enterprise who are both owned by his father.

New this morning is that Chris Buescher will drive the 34 in an alliance with Roush Fenway

This is big news for Chris Buescher but also a surprising one too. Even though he gets parts from Roush Fenway Racing, it is still an underfunded team so Chris Buescher will probably not do much. No sponsors other then Front Rows have been announced.

Alex Bowman and Tommy Baldwin Racing has announced that Toy Store for 13 races in 2016 and 17 races in 2017. Another cool thing that they are going to be doing is changing the scheme for a sponsor Toy Store wants to promote. The paint scheme will be on the Paint Scheme page.

Kelly Blue Book will be sponsoring Chase Elliott for 2 races this season instead of Dale Jr.

Tommy Baldwin Racing is going to be a team to be to watch out for in the future. They hired fomer Joe Gibbs Racing and Michael Waltrip Racing guys to build their cars. That is a huge improvement for them.

There have been reports that on the Front Row website does not mention the #35 car at all. This proves that they will be going down to a 2 car team but no reports on if they would keep Gilliland or Whitt or if they'll sign another driver.

Premium Motorsports bought out Hillman Racing and part are moving to their full time ride. There goes Landon Cassill

I'm almost 100% sure I read somewhere that Erik Jones will definitely be racing parttime for Joe Gibbs Racing. But it is unknown what number, crew chief, and sponsor as of right now.
