Sprague out of #2 truck

Sprague out of No. 2 KHI truck, Harvick in for now

By Team Release
October 6, 2008
04:48 PM EDT

KERNERSVILLE, N.C. -- Kevin Harvick Inc. announced Monday that Jack Sprague has been released from the No. 2 Chevrolet. KHI co-owner Kevin Harvick will assume driving duties of the No. 2 for the upcoming Truck Series event at Martinsville Speedway on October 18th. Details on the driver lineup for the remainder of the season will be announced at a later date.
"The performance of the No. 2 team was not up to either Jack or KHI's standards," said Kevin Harvick, co-owner of Kevin Harvick Inc. "My main goal now is to prepare the team to run for a championship in 2009. I am looking forward to getting behind the wheel in Martinsville. It should be a lot of fun."
Sprague, a three-time Truck Series champion, joined KHI this season and was eighth in the championship following last weekend's race at Talladega. Sprague, who was eliminated from the last two Truck races in accidents, had a pole position, five top-five and nine top-10 finishes in 20 races this season.

Re: Sprague out of #2 truck

In my opinion, Harvick made a mistake by making Sprague and Hornaday Jr. team mates. Some people just do not play well with others. Dale Earnhardt Jr. was one. Cale Yarborough was another. Ditto Junior Johnson. Add Jack Sprague to the list.

The only surprise here is that he stuck around as long as he did.

Sprague is a hell of a racer in the CTS. Stupid move by Harvick I agree with. Sprague won't be rideless long. He'll probably be in another ride before the season's over with.

That was a surprise to me... and its too bad. I hope Sprague finds a good ride and team, and KHI finds a good driver for the #2.
