Watch out, Matt Kenseth! According to ESPN.com, Brian Deegan will be joining NTS Motorsports and begin his stock car development with hopes of joining the Sprint Cup circuit soon.
Deegan announced at Charlotte Motor Speedway that he will be joining the NTS Motorsports driver development program with the objective of moving through the ranks of NASCAR to Sprint Cup as quickly as possible. Deegan will become part of a two-car program that NTS fields, along with current driver Brennan Newberry.
Deegan, as usual, was very open about his view of this opportunity. “When NASCAR chairman Brian France told the world that NASCAR is a contact sport, we’re going to loosen it up, I’m not sure Mr. France knew what he was getting into. I took that as a personal invitation for guys like me. I love racing, I love going fast, I love pushing the limit and that’s what I’m going to bring to NASCAR. I have been designated as the General of the Metal Mulisha and so the Metal Mulisha army is going to march on NASCAR,” Deegan said.
