NASCAR Heat 5: Joe Nemechek's 2009 Revival of NEMCO

#NASCARCupSeries #NASCAR #NASCARCupSeries #Daytona #JoeNemechek
2009 saw the return of Joe Nemechek's NEMCO Motorsports team following his departure from Furniture Row Racing in 2008. NEMCO had not participated in a Cup race since 2005, and had not competed full-time since 1996, and had only run select NASCAR Busch/Nationwide Series events following the 2004 season. The end of 2008 and beginning of 2009 also saw a shift in the sport. Following several team mergers and closures, many crewmen and drivers saw themselves without a job. This created a rise in underfunded small teams not really seen since 2004. These included:

The Return of Joe Nemechek's 87 car
Tommy Baldwin's 36 car
The G 70 and 71 teams
Jeremy Mayfield's 41
The Barry Haefele 73 team
The Larry Gunselman/Geoff Bodine 64
Germain Racing's 13 car
PRISM Motorsports' 66 car
The Return of the John Carter/Mark Simo 08 car
Derrike Cope's Cup team revived after laying dormant since 2003
Kirk Shelmerdine's 27 that had not attempted a race since 2007
E&M Motorsports 60 car with James Hylton (The team ultimately only attempted one race)
Canadian Trevor Boys made a return after 15 years away from the Cup Series
The Bean family's BlackJack 51 team
Carl Long's revived 46 team

Each one of these teams will get their own special video.
