Sad News: About a minute ago NASCAR driver die in a Car Cr…….
When one door closes, another one opens.
NASCAR took a rigid stance against Mike Wallace who was hoping to resurrect his racing ambitions.
The veteran driver had not wheeled a Cup car since 2015, and last appeared in a NASCAR event in 2020.
This long gap induced the sanctioning body to shut down Wallace’s dream, leaving MBM Motorsports in a fix as well.
However, Carl Long’s team has a savior – Chandler Smith.
The promising 22-year-old driver is eager to embark on a new journey this year.
He signed up for Front Row Motorsports’ Craftsman Truck Series team despite having an impressive season with Joe Gibbs Racing in the Xfinity Series last year.
Now, Chandler Smith also has a score to settle, as he sees himself demoted to the Truck Series.
And a new-look MBM will help him show his prowess.
At the same time, the news was also a setback for MBM Motorsports. Created in 2015, the team has faced sponsorship issues for a long time.
This time, however, Carl Long is determined to level up.
After Wallace’s exit, MBM revamped its brand name to ‘Garage 66.’
Then it announced Garrett Smithley as its driver for the Busch Light Clash.
However, the team kept the most-awaited news at bay until now – who will replace Wallace in the Daytona 500.
