Roush Fenway Racing is working on having Trevor Bayne make his Sprint Cup debut next month, most likely at Texas Motor Speedway. Bayne possibly could end up in the #21 Ford of Wood Brothers Racing, although Roush Fenway could field a fifth car for Bayne since he is a rookie. By running Texas, the 19-year-old Bayne would be in a good position for approval for the 2011 Daytona 500. He is approved for any Cup race the remainder of this year except for Talladega. ‘I know if I were to run the Cup race next year [at Daytona], it would be something I would have to be approved for,’Â Bayne said Saturday at Auto Club Speedway in California. ‘That would be a process that could include that, but I dont know what the ultimate plan is yet. We have talked about running a Roush car at Texas, but I dont know [what will happen].’Â Bayne is ninth in the Nationwide Series standings. He signed with Roush Fenway last week after starting the year with Diamond-Waltrip Racing. He will run the rest of the Nationwide Series season for Roush Fenway and full time in 2011 with likely select Cup races.(SceneDaily)(10-9-2010)
