BDR will probably race its last Cup race at Homestead this season.

Sponsorship is getting harder and harder to come by, even for teams with impressive resumes. NA__AR sponsorship, in every division, just isn't cost effective. (translated: NA__AR has allowed the cost of sponsorship to go wildly out of control.)

Johnny probably sees something the rest of us will see within the year.

It continues to look bad for Bill Davis, This from jayski:

UPDATE 6: Sirius Speedway's Dave Moody, reports that sources close to Bill Davis Racing say that NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series point leader Johnny Benson will move to Red Horse Racing next season, taking the majority of his current team -- and possibly his sponsor - along with him. Benson will race as a teammate to David Starr, reportedly with the backing of Benson's current sponsor, Toyota Certified Used Vehicles. The NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series point leader has declined to comment on his future plans recently, saying only that he will not return to BDR in 2009, and has contemplated retirement. However, multiple sources close to the team say that crew chief Trip Bruce has already cleaned out his desk at BDR in anticipation of a move to Red Horse, which is co-owned by Tom Deloach and Fox commentator Jeff Hammond. Starr will reportedly run a full schedule for Red Horse in 2009, with backing from Zachry Holdings, Inc., which joined the team last month.(Motorsports Soapbox)(
Not only is Johnny leaving but he's taking his crew and sponsor with him. Really bad scene.
