Turner Scott Motorsports announced that the #42 car of Kyle Larson would undergo a driver change at the NASCAR Nationwide Series standalone races this season, placing Dylan Kwasniewski behind the wheel of the #42 up & up by Target car at five events. Current NASCAR Camping World Truck Series driver Chase Pistone will replace Kwasniewski at Iowa Speedway in the #31 Chevrolet Camaro. Kwasniewski currently drives the #31 Rockstar Energy Drink Chevrolet for TSM in the NNS and was recently announced as a Chip Ganassi Racing with Felix Sabates development driver. Pistone is also no stranger to racing. As a racecar builder of Legends Cars and Super Late Models, Pistone helps develop and field several drivers out of his North Carolina shop, Chase Pistone, Inc. The grandson of ‘Tiger’ Tom Pistone, the 30-year-old driver has one previous NNS start and has competed in both the Pro Cup and ARCA Racing Series, where he claimed a top-10 finish in his ARCA debut at Iowa Speedway. Although the #31 and the #42 cars will undergo a driver change at these select events, the TSM crews will remain the same for each car, with Kwasniewski under the direction of crew chief Scott Zipadelli, and Pistone under the direction of Pat Tryson at Iowa Speedway.(Turner Scott Motorsports)(5-12-2014)
UPDATE: Target is expanding its sponsorship in the NASCAR Nationwide Series to include the up & up brand as the primary sponsor on the #42 Turner Scott Motorsports’ Chevy Camaro for five races. The up & up brand will make its track debut this weekend during the Get to Know Newton 250 Presented by Sherwin Williams NNS race at Iowa Speedway. Dylan Kwasniewski will drive the #42 up & up Chevy to fill-in for Kyle Larson during five of the NNS races where the series does not race at the same track as the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series.(Chip Ganassi Racing), see an image of the car on the #42 team paint schemes page.(5-14-2014)
