NASCAR: Ryan Blaney plans to drive in all three series in October

Tags

American stock car racing driver Ryan Blaney has not issues changing seats. He has been changing seats from ride to ride in all three NASCAR national series this season.

The chance to change rides gave him enough track time and versatility which greatly helped his performance. Blaney recently won a third-place finish last weekend in the NASCAR Nationwide Series behind Sprint Cup regulars Kyle Busch and Kevin Harvick at Kansas Speedway.

He will also be returning to his full-time gig driving in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series on Oct. 18 at Talladega Superspeedway and will also be making his second career Sprint Cup start the following day.

But aside from that, Blaney also has a schedule on the Nationwide side for Team Penske at Charlotte Motor Speedway this weekend.

He said "I'm really excited for Charlotte. I've got Greg Erwin crew-chiefing me, and I think we're pretty close to how we were at Kentucky, and we had a pretty good run there with Greg. I really like Charlotte and it's always been a fun race track for me. Looking forward to running three out of the last four Nationwide events."

Although Blaney's race car number will be changing in different races, his preparation for each run will remain the same.

Jeremy Bullins will be with Blaney on the pit box for the No. 22 Mustang. He said "The races this year that we've run the 12 (Nationwide) program, we're trying to mirror what we're doing with the 22, so we'll be in constant contact with them and make sure that's as good an effort as it can be. Then we're all excited to go with him to Talladega here in a couple weeks; that's going to be a lot of fun."

Ryan is the son of NASCAR driver Dave Blaney. He currently drives the No. 29 Ford F-150 for Brad Keselowski Racing in the Camping World Truck Series as well as the No. 22 Ford Mustang and No. 12 Ford Mustang for Team Penske in the Nationwide Series, and No. 12 Ford Fusion in the Sprint Cup Series on a part-time basis.
