For Atlanta and Las Vegas they received sponsorship from conservative website keepandbear.com stirring up a bit of controversy, however, they still finished 13th and 20th respectively. At Martinsville the team would receive sponsorship from Bad Boy Mowers once again where they qualified 28th and finish 29th after a plug wire failure in numerous Ilmor Engines that day. For Texas they went unsponsored till raceday when Bad Boy Mowers again stepped in, they qualified 13th and finished 9th.
