Kyle Busch Motorsports Shuts Down Nationwide Operation

Following the NASCAR Nationwide Series race, Kyle Busch announced during post-race interviews that  Kyle Busch Motorsports won’t field a NNS entry in 2014 due to lack of funding. Kyle Busch Motorsports team will focus their attention primarily to the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series, hoping to get funding for their drivers there.

“There’s absolutely no funding in this world.” Kyle Busch said after Saturday’s event

Busch mentioned that right now as it stands, KBM will be fielding two trucks – one for Darrell Wallace Jr. and one for Busch to split with Erik Jones. Joey Coulter looks to be out of a ride due to lack of sponsorship.

Parker Kligerman has been competing for KBM this year in the Nationwide Series. Kligerman ended the season on a high-note, finishing seventh at Homestead-Miami Speedway. Kligerman will finish the season ninth in the standings after posting three top five finishes.

The future remains cloudy for Kligerman, although he’s possibly leaned towards running with Swan Racing in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series next season but that hasn’t been confirmed. Swan Racing will field Kligerman in Sunday’s Ford EcoBoost 400 at HMS.

“I want to say a big set-off everyone, thanks to Kyle Busch Motorsports for the opportunity and good luck to everyone in the off-season,” Kligerman commented after the race on YouTube
