Dodge released Timothy Peters as driver of the Craftsman Series #4 truck, Bobby Hamilton Racing announced Tuesday. However, Peters shouldnt be without a ride for long. After racing for two seasons with Bobby Hamilton Racing, Peters is expected to sign with Richard Childress Racing as early as this weekend in New Hampshire. Phone messages left with Richard Childress Racing were not immediately returned, and Peters said he couldnt comment on his future. Im not at liberty to say anything, he said. In 17 Truck Series races this season, Peters has one top-10 finish – placing sixth on June 23 at Milwaukee. He has three career top-10 finishes in 33 Truck Series starts, and is currently 19th in the points standings. We brought Timothy Peters in as a rookie, and with some seat time under his belt he has proven to be a hot commodity, team owner Bobby Hamilton said in a release. A potential deal with RCR would join Peters with Danville native Peyton Sellers, who is in RCRs development program, and South Boston native Jeff Burton. For now the plan is to team back up with his Baileys South Boston team for the Baileys 300 late model race at Martinsville Speedway on Oct. 1.(Danville Register Bee)(9-15-2006)
