Barring a miracle walk-on sponsor at the last minute, Barney Visser has confirmed to Kickin’ the Tires that he will shutter the #77 in 2018. ‘Right now, we don’t have a sponsor lined up for the 77, Visser said. ‘There is no way we can run it without sponsorship, so we’re going to have to put it down. It’s tough, it’s tough to take. We had a lot of people move out to Colorado and they are either going to be happy when they are leaving or they are not leaving. We are either going to make them happy or they are not going to leave they are going to stay with us.
Visser said any shutdown of the #77 car, currently driven by Erik Jones, would hopefully not be permanent and his goal would be to bring it back. He said strong crewmembers are hard to come by, especially body men and fabricators.(Kickin’ the Tires)[Read More Here](9-13-2017)
