During an interview with SPEED/TV’s Ray Dunlap, Jack Sprague said he would not be returning to the #60 in 2009. Sprague also said that Wyler Racing is searching for sponsorship, and he would do everything he could to help keep Wyler Racing in the sport whether he was in or out of the truck.(10-24-2008)
UPDATE: Sprague, who reunited with Wyler Racing last month after being released as driver of the #2 truck at Kevin Harvick Inc., plans to run the final two races of 2008 with his current group. Beyond that, he’s not sure of his plans. Like so many truck teams, Wyler is searching for a full-time primary sponsor for its #60 “I have no idea,” Sprague said when asked if he could drive for the team beyond 2008. “I mean, if they got sponsorship obviously we continue on but things are pretty tough. Hopefully, we can find something to keep them in racing regardless of if I drive it or not but my main goal is to keep the Wylers in it because NASCAR needs owners like this – there’s no doubt about it. They’re absolutely wonderful people and they enjoy the sport. Hopefully, we can get something put together with an up-and-comer that has some money or something to keep this team going. Sprague has made at least two starts in every truck season since the series started in 1995. In all but one of those years – 2003 – he ran the full schedule. (SceneDaily.com)(11-2-2008)
