MEXICO CITY – Boris Said's No Fear Racing team will not attempt to run the Sprint Cup race at Talladega next week, he said Friday.
"We can't really turn our program around [in a short amount of time], and we're just not ready," he said before practicing his Nationwide Series car at Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez for this Sunday's race. "We've only got three people working in our shop."
No Fear Racing will attempt the road course races at Infineon Raceway and Watkins Glen, as well as the July Daytona race and the fall Talladega race.
Said said his team would take the money it would have spent to attempt the first Talladega race and use it to run all three road course races in the Nationwide Series – Mexico City, Montreal and Watkins Glen.
