Too bad. They had what looked like a miserable time at Volusia. Couldn't punch their way out of a wet paper bag (or B Main). In the meantime, to rub a lot of salt in the wounds, Tim Shaffer was running like a man possessed in the 45 car that they just put together for the Dirt Car Nationals.
I am sure Christopher Bell will land back on his feet. He has a lot of talent and his whole future is ahead of him. He'll find his niche sooner or later.
More than anything, Bell came from the micro sprint ranks in Oklahoma. He a had a successful short stint in midgets before getting the Ferkel ride. Everyone knows the rest.

He will probably drive Keith's new wing car. If I had to guess that would be what I'd think. He started it last year after his non wing was tore up at the smackdown
When not driving for Kunz, Bell will dribe the Baytown Ford #31b and the Fox 53 some as well as other rides he may choose to take, Young man is going places. Enjoy him on dirt while you can.

That team lost a lot when Kemenah left. The car hasn't been nearly as fast since and looked pretty bad in Volusia. It looks like Bell did officially leave the team. http://www.nationalspeedsportnews.co...rsports-no-83/
