Billy Ballew Motorsports’ driver is second in the Camping World Truck Series standings, but the team doesn’t have a sponsor for 2011. The team would like to continue with Aric Almirola behind the wheel next season, team owner Billy Ballew said. Almirola has signed to drive for JR Motorsports in 2011 in the NASCAR Nationwide Series but likely could start all but two of the truck races next year based on the schedules for the two series. Graceway Pharmaceuticals will not be returning as a sponsor. “Right now we don’t have anything locked in,” Ballew said. “We’d love to have a sponsor for Aric. We’re just trying to get sponsorship on this thing. It’s late in the game, and it’s really tough out there right now.” While he wants Almirola to drive, Ballew would consider a sponsor that wants a specific driver. With a 25-race schedule, Ballew hopes to find sponsors willing to sign at least a five-race deal.(SceneDaily.com)(11-10-2010)
