Rick Ware racing sold (9 Viewers)

I'd say it's a good move based on his NASCAR performance record. But isn't his inhouse engine program also doing the
TF engine refresh during the between races, and housing the entire NHRA operation? Lots of questions about what's going To happen
in the remaining race operations.
We can only hope this wasn't a last-minute decision out of desperation.

I am bullish on wanting to build a three-car team. I believe in the France family and the direction of the sport and I want the rest of the shareholders and industry to know that I believe the charters are worth $75 million or more,” he explained.
Puchyr’s keeping it smooth, though, as Rick Ware stays on as a partner, Cody Ware keeps driving the No. 51, and all RWR employees are safe. As the Quaker State 400 at EchoPark Speedway looms, this shakeup’s got everyone talking about who’s got the edge in NASCAR’s high-stakes chess game.
One of the founders of Spire Motorsports has entered an agreement to purchase the NASCAR team owned by Rick Ware and is jumping back into the stock car series because he believes the current charters are grossly undervalued.
T.J. Puchyr, who in 2018 alongside Jeff Dickerson launched the Spire team to take over the charter that Furniture Row Racing could not unload, told The Associated Press on Thursday he and Rick Ware Racing have a deal for him to take over Ware’s organization next season.

“I am bullish on wanting to build a three-car team. I believe in the France family and the direction of the sport and I want the rest of the shareholders and industry to know that I believe the charters are worth $75 million or more,” he told AP.
In his deal with Ware, Puchyr will keep Ware on board as a partner, also keep Ware’s son, Cody, in the No. 51 Ford, and retain all of the current RWR employees. Ware’s current second charter is leased to RFK Racing, but Legacy Motor Club made a legal claim that it had entered an agreement to buy that charter next season.
…
Now, Puchyr and Ware are confident the second charter currently leased to RFK will be returned to their team in 2027, allowing Puchyr to expand the organization. He wants to buy a third charter that makes the organization a three-car Cup team by 2027.

I would think so, but I found this to ponder:
en.wikipedia.org
It sites just the NASCAR team sold = but IDK what we'll find out forthcoming.
FWIW the RWR site is down & "under construction" ATM....
www.wareracing.com
Just one question remains; instead of the chicken & the egg, which came first??
Drag Racin' or Soap Operas???? LOL!!

His Motorcycle and Road Racing teams have been successful also.
How many wins, I haven't followed Supercross in years, and never had any interest in Road Racing.

Doesn’t make much sense to sell the NHRA teams since he just bought a second operation from JFR to run Schumacher. This NHRA investment could have been part of a strategic move by RWR to divest from NASCAR, pending the sale of NASCAR charters. At least that’s what I’m hoping.

Also,found this. https://www.autoweek.com/racing/nhra/a65224237/nhra-top-fuel-team-unaffected-rick-ware-racing-sale/
Article states that Rick’s NHRA teams will remain unaffected.
The first article posted above on MSN is extremely confusing and apparently misleading.
