During the final practice session broadcast, Ray Dunlap reported that Randy Moss Motorsports will most likely be a two truck team in 2009 with one veteran driver and one rookie. Dennis Setzer is rumored to be heading the list of veteran candidates for the ride. Setzer is currently on a one-year contract with BHR-VA.(7-18-2008)
UPDATE: In response to some recent rumors around the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series garage area, BHR-VA and driver Dennis Setzer are releasing a statement about their future together. At this time, the team and driver are working collectively with each other and individually on options for the 2009 season. Both parties will release statements at future times on their respective plans. Until this time, the team is focused on its performance in 2008 and will continue its contract together which is through the end of this season.(BHR-VA PR)(7-21-2008)
UPDATE 2: Randy Moss and David Dollar don’t have a set time to connect on the phone, but they have been hooking up often lately. Usually on Tuesdays, when Moss is off from his day job as wide receiver with the New England Patriots, and frequently in the evenings of almost any day. Dollar said the hope is to field two trucks next year, one with a veteran driver capable of contending for a title and the other serving as a training vehicle for young drivers. [Marc]Davis could be a candidate for the latter, and someone like Bobby Hamilton Racing-Virginia’s Dennis Setzer, a three-time series runner-up with Morgan-Dollar, would be a natural veteran hire. “We have a short list of drivers that we’re definitely keeping our eye on. We’ll see what plays out,” Dollar said.(ESPN.com)(8-28-2008)
