    Default Pierce/Viper

    Surprised this hasn't been mentioned yet, but BPR has partnered with Viper Motorsports for the rest of 2019 as well as 2020. The program will remain the same but Pierce will be powered by Martin's Pro Power Engines. The partnership will debut at the World 100. Shawn says Schaefer's Oil is joining the fold in 2020 as well. Kyle Hardy is now driving for Billy Hicks, but is still supposed to be driving Martin's ICON part-time as well so we'll see how this partnership effects that.

    Where was this news announced? Does Bob still own the team and Martin coming on as the engine sponsor, or did Martin buy the team from Bob?

    Shawn Martin posted a news release on facebook yesterday. As far as I know it's just a partnership for them to run Martin's engines. Bobby still owns the team, Bob owns the hauler which he expects Bobby to purchase from him at the end of the season per a DoD interview a week or 2 ago.

    It was posted on both of their Facebook accounts... the way I read it’s just going to be a motor sponsorship.. still running xr1’s and pierce cars.

    Shawn also stated that there was big news coming from BWRC in the next few weeks as well.

    Ya Martin and Bobby posted it. Wonder if Bobby will dabble in a ICON chassis. Either way like seeing Bobby pick up another big sponser, I guess the t shirts aren't hurting him like some want to claim....

    Not 100% positive on this but- I think Koker Trucking owns the hauler & Bob owns the trailer. Like Ryan21mid stayed: The DOD article quoted Bob saying that Bobby would purchase the trailer at the end of the year.

    I kind of feel bad for Kyle Hardy....went from making a run for Rookie of The Year with the WoO's for Viper, to basically out of a ride......

    you'd be amazed the deals these sponsors will make to rub elbows with a winner. Might even sell some product with the decal hanging on the race car. Under funded teams needs every freebie and discount they can get. As much as the 32 team wins makes it just a little bit easier to attack spongers........IMO Bobby is the most marketable driver since Zero.

    And for people that live through them as if they are them.

    Hope y'all ( since you are a quasi team member)can keep all the sponsors happy for a very long time.....It's fun to watch.

    Can someone get a picture of a fan with one of those fn tshirts actually on?no, seriously.
    Where is the move over flag when you need it?????
