Paul Tracy is to continue racing in selected NASCAR Busch Series events next season with new team Riley-D'Hondt Motorsports.
Tracy has competed in five Busch series races this season, and his new Champ Car contract with Forsythe Racing allows him to run in other categories when his schedule is open.
The team, formed less than a month ago by NASCAR veterans Bill Riley and Eddie D'Hondt, will be backed by Sport Clips, who have supported Tracy's Busch schedule this year.
"I am familiar with what both Bill and Eddie have accomplished in their careers and I am excited about being a part of their new team," said Tracy.
"It was important for me to gain seat time this season and we were able to achieve that. I learned a great deal about the cars and the competition in the few races I have run so far this year."
Riley-D'Hondt will compete with the new Toyota Camry in 2007.
