The #5 team did run the full schedule in 2011. After Kvapil was axed, the team merged with Germain Racing, and Todd Bodine drove the truck for the rest of the year. The truck was fielded by Germain, while the equipment was provided by RMM.
I remember Dan Marino co-owning a car with someone else and Jerry Nadeau being the driver. Also remember Troy Aikman co-owning a short-lived team with TI DLP as the sponsor.
Setzer actually finished second in Truck points three straight years, including the 2003 season with its infamous finale - when the dust settled, he lagged Kvapil by nine points. NINE.
I remember 2003, good season marred by that infamous Homestead finale thanks to Ultra’s shenanigans. Was glad Bobby Hamilton won. I was also glad that he won the championship the next year in trucks. I miss SPEED Channel so much.
One of the more unexpected team owners that I can remember was Terry Bradshaw owning a Bush series team, I can still remember that supercuts car to this day
I remember watching part of the 2008 Trucks race at Bristol that Jimmie Johnson ran in. I believe he could've had a shot at the win if the truck didn't break loose on him
Several former NFL players have become or attempted to become team owners. In 2000, former Ohio State QB Mike Tomzcak (sp???) co-owned a Busch team, car 0 sponsored by Ohio State. I forgot the driver. And asked why Moss became a team owner, he said, where I'm from, everyone likes racing.
Emmitt Smith had a widely failed attempt just a few years ago. Staubach and Aikman at HOF Motorsports. They were just figure heads, but that was also a failed attempt.
Who are the most unique and odd team owners you can think of?
Tristar Motorsports, the team paulie harraka owned
Remember when Dan Marino co-owned a Cup team with Bill Elliott for a year?
Jackie Joyner-Kersee w/ Kurt Roehrig
Roger Staubach & Troy Aikman’s HOF Racing
Michael Jordan

One of the greatest player ever to not win a Super Bowl.. Sorry he couldn't get that ring in February 2008 with my Patriots.
What could've been.

Kerry Earnhardt drove for him in that car at one point...
I don't know much about Football or Randy Moss, but all my prayers goes out to him, his family and friends. Cancer sucks.

Dan Marino (#13)
If RMM understood what a contract meant, Skinner would have never left
James finch and he still owns cars and teams I believe and his kid is definitely a up and coming hot shoe
Prayers for Randy Moss. One of the best players in NFL History.
straight cash homie. god bless RM
Prayers to Randy Moss 🙏
I had no idea about this
I wish he would’ve raced too.
Ikr would've been interesting.

The weird one for me was Dan Marino in 1998

Didn’t Alvin kamara start a xfinity team
23XI before 23XI...famous athlete car owner, uses his own number on race vehicle, just no established driver co owner.
Is there a NASCAR rule about not covering the car in Baby Oil to reduce drag? That's what comes to mind when you said "SuperFreak" car owner.
Yeah I was thinking oh no a car owner with Diddy connections...bad enough Brian Vickers' wife was Epstein's secretary...
