With Brad Brown shutting down IBRACN I was thinking of bringing back something I started a long time ago. Brad did an excellent job with driver news and I don't think I colud come close. I once had a page called the Pits with driver news for the next season. I will try it again if I can gather enough info. If anyone in here knows, hears or sees any driver/team info for 2019 could you please post it in this thread and when I can gather enough I will fire the page back up. I have to start this out somewhere and thought this would be a good place to try. If you see anything out on social media please copy and paste the info into this thread. Thank You Allan

Another feature of IBRACN that I liked was the picture section where it showed the new paint schemes for the upcoming year.

Any news on Heffner? I would totally understand if he didn’t want to do it anymore, but I hope he stays in it and fields a team.

The 13 of Mark Dobmeier will return in his Maxim with Buffalo Wild Wings still his major sponsor. His associate sponsors will be on board again in 2019. Look for a similar schedule for this second year team out of Grand Forks.

I'm pretty sure I had seen something about him back in the Swindell Speed Lab ride? Is this official?

It’s not my place for a press release and i don’t want to be that guy that says I can’t say, lol. I could show you the text from someone first hand knowledge that couldn’t be closer to the situation.

Cool, I take your word for it. Which leads to a couple questions now - is Dave Blaney looking for a full time ride for 2019? Or scaling back? Who will Kevin Swindell hire? Or is he scaling back?

Just saw on Fully Injected that Brock Zearfross is driving the Pete Grove 70 full time on the all Star tour. Not Spencer Bayston
