Rusty Wallace Racing to Cup?

Quote :

LEBANON, Tenn. – NASCAR Nationwide Series car owner Rusty Wallace said he hopes to move his two-car team to the Sprint Cup Series in 2010. But the situation would have to be perfect.

Rusty Wallace Racing fields two Chevrolets, for Brendan Gaughan and Rusty’s son, Steve, in the Nationwide Series.

“Ideally, if all the moons lined up, I’d start in 2010,” Wallace said at Nashville Superspeedway, where the Nashville 300 will be held Saturday. “Two cars. I’d want Stephen and Brendan to go right in.”

But Rusty Wallace would need a partnership with an existing team in order to stock enough inventory of cars and engines. Also, RWR would need the right level of sponsorship.

Richard Childress Racing provided RWR with engines in the Nationwide Series, and Wallace said he’s had casual conversations about a Cup alliance with RCR.

“I’d definitely be looking at doing some type of technology merger with a team, and the one that makes the most sense is Childress,” Wallace said. “That’d be a quick way to get going.”

Wallace said his shop facilities in Mooresville, N.C. would be adequate for a Cup team. The team currently does its own bodies there and has a large fabrication area.

“I think we’ve got the facilities,” Wallace said. “We’re a little tight on square footage compared to some of the big shops. But when I talk to people and they look at our place, they go, ‘Oh, my God. You could run two Cup teams out of this shop so easy it’s unreal.’”

Gaughan has one year of Cup experience, running the 2004 season as Wallace’s teammate at Penske Racing. Steve Wallace, 21, is in his third full-time season in the Nationwide Series.

“I want to move up,” Rusty Wallace said. “My goal was to get Stephen up to speed. Looks like the crashing has finally stopped. The good finishes are happening. We’ve got all this year of Nationwide to go.

“Then I think it’s time, instead of getting stalled out in one series, to move up and do something different. I don’t care if people agree with you or don’t.”
