Tommy Baldwin Racing sells a NASCAR Sprint Cup entry to Premium
Jay Robinson-owned Premium Motorsports has purchased the assets of Tommy Baldwin Racing's #36 entry for the 2015 NASCAR Sprint Cup season
The new organisation will renumber the car driven last year by Reed Sorensen to #62.
No driver announcements have been made, however it is widely reported that Richard Childress Racing will prepare the Chevrolet for the Daytona 500, with RCR Xfinity Series driver Brian Scott set to take the wheel.
Robinson has entered cars across all of NASCAR's tiers for several years, and is best known for running an eponymous team in the Nationwide Series until 2012.
He has also had recent involvements in NEMCO Motorsports and Identity Partners Racing.
Sorensen ran a full-time campaign in Cup last year, finishing 34th in the points.
Baldwin will still run its #7 Chevrolet for Alex Bowman.
