UPDATE: Eric McClure, a former Late Model division regular at Lonesome Pine Raceway, announced Monday he has signed to drive the full 2006 ARCA season with the Owensboro, Ky.-based Premier Motorsports Racing Team driving the unsponsored #60 Chevy. McClure’s Busch and Cup schedule hasn’t been finalized but he knows he’ll run about five races in each series, with the Daytona 500 and the March 12 UAW-DaimlerChrysler 400 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway definitely on the Cup schedule. His Busch and Cup runs will mostly occur when ARCA is sharing a venue such as Michigan in the Cup series and Nashville in the Busch Series. “We’re going without sponsorship, but Dan is committed to doing it, so I’m going with him,” McClure said.(Kingsport Times-News)(2-7-2006)
