Josh Wise announced today that he will
no longer drive for the Premium Motorsports NASCAR Sprint Cup Series team.
“I have parted ways with Premium
Motorsports,” said Wise via Twitter. “The team and I did not share the same
goals moving forward. I wish them the best and look forward to what the future
holds.”
Premium Motorsports majority owner Jay
Robinson purchased Wise’s No. 98 entry from Phil Parsons Motorsports earlier
this season, though former California Lieutenant Governor Mike Curb has continued
to be listed as the owner of record.
The No. 98 car has raced this season with periodic
sponsorship from DogeCoin, Big Red and Royal Teak Collection, with Wise
recording a top finish of 10th in the GEICO 500 at Talladega
Superspeedway in early May. The team had only three other Top-30 finishes in 18
starts this season.
Last week, Brendan Gaughan departed
Premium Motorsports’ No. 62 Sprint Cup Series Chevrolet, after failing to
qualify in eight of 16 attempts this season.
The team has also fielded entries for
drivers Wendell Chavous and Timmy Hill on the NASCAR Camping World Truck
Series. There is no word on Wise's replacement. Reed Sorenson drove the No. 62 Chevrolet Saturday night at Kentucky Speedway, finishing 36th.
