Multiple sources close to the situation say team owner Kevin Buckler met with Jack Roush yesterday to discuss a deal that will result in TRG receiving cars and engines from Roush-Fenway Racing, beginning at Texas Motor Speedway April 9. Rookie Andy Lally has run the first four races of the season for TRG, and currently ranks 35th in championship points with a best finish of 31st at Phoenix International Raceway. He will be replaced by Hermie Sadler on a one-race basis at Martinsville next weekend, with Lally returning to the cockpit the following week at Texas. Sadler, a native of Emporia, Va., drove for TRG in the fall race at Martinsville last year, finishing 26th.
A call to TRG Motorsports owner Kevin Buckler seeking confirmation was not immediately returned.
In a related story, TRG has tabbed Paul Chapprood to serve as the team’s interim crew chief this weekend in California. Chapprood replaces Jay Guy, who left the team to accept a position as crewchief on Travis Kvapil's #38 Long John Silver’s Ford at Front Row Motorsports.
