Wearing a Miccosukee T-shirt in the garage area, #1-Mike Bliss was ready to begin driving for James Finchs Phoenix Racing team that is ranked 22nd in owners points instead of the Fitz Motorsports team ranked eighth. Bliss is fifth in the Nationwide Series driver points, but says he felt like he had to make the move heading into the seventh race of the 35-race Nationwide Series schedule. The 2002 Craftsman Truck Series champion, Bliss had driven for Fitz in 23 races last year. The Fitz Motorsports car could still use sponsorship for about 10 races but team owner Armando Fitz has pledged to run the entire season.It was a tough, tough decision because we were running good, Bliss said. It was a personal move for myself. I wasnt too sure we were going to run all the races.(SceneDaily.com)(4-3-2008)
