I don't know if it was Hamilton Jr. or the teams problem. The #32 didn't do real well in 2004 with Craven driving and seemed to get progressively worse. I don't know if Kvapil will do much better, but I don't see Tide staying around after this season if they don't make a dramatic improvement (I'm amazed they haven't left already). But as poorly as the team ran last year it shouldn't take much to make an improvement.
On to the depressing news. It looks like Ultra Motorsports will shut down their truck team next season after losing Dodge support and failing to secure a deal with Ford. Ted Musgrave is now looking for work after winning the championship last year. Too bad that one of the original truck series teams had to shut down, I think they might have been the only left.
