CHARLOTTE, NC :: Even though former Super Late Model regular Erik Jones has graduated to the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series full-time, his boss, Kyle Busch plans to remain involved in short track racing with an expanded roster for 2015 and beyond.
Busch and Jones participated in 10 Super Late Model races last season in the flagship No. 51 Toyota, winning four times, including the Winchester 400 with Jones in October.
While Jones will still be available for select marquee events, Busch is also working towards getting open wheel standout Christopher Bell and other Toyota development drivers seat time in a stock car.
“We have some guys that we are looking to put some things together for in the Super Late Model program,” Busch told RACE22.com at the NASCAR Media Tour this week.
Bell, 19, made a handful of starts in the No. 52 KBM Super Late Model and won in the PASS South 150-lapper at Orange County Speedway in October. He also competed in the Snowflake 100, finishing sixth.
Busch himself also plans to return to a Super Late Model in 2015, whenever his NASCAR schedule allows.
