Riggs joins new Baldwin team
Scott Riggs will join the new Tommy Baldwin Racing team for this year's NASCAR Sprint Cup
Veteran Evernham, Yates and Bill Davis Racing crew chief Tommy Baldwin formed his new operation earlier this month, and will run a single Toyota this season.
Riggs joins the team from Haas CNC Racing, having lost his drive there when Tony Stewart bought into the outfit.
"I look forward to working with Tommy," Riggs said. "I think we can work together to build something really strong. I feel fortunate to work with someone like Tommy who has so much experience."
A race-winner in the Nationwide Series and Craftsman Trucks earlier in his career, 38-year-old Riggs has yet to achieve similar results in five Sprint Cup seasons, with a second place at Michigan in 2005 his only top three finish to date.
"Having Scott Riggs on board is a huge stepping stone for Tommy Baldwin Racing," said Baldwin. "He's a top calibre driver, and I look forward to seeing the success we can have together."
