Roush Completes Deal With Red Sox Owner
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (AP) — A group of investors led by Boston Red Sox
owner John Henry has completed a deal to buy a 50 percent stake in the Roush Racing NASCAR team, a person familiar with the negotiations said Friday. Although team owner Jack Roush is selling half of the team to the Fenway Sports Group, Roush will continue to run the team's competitive operations, according to the person, who requested anonymity because the deal hasn't been announced. Both parties have scheduled a Feb. 14 news conference at Jackie Robinson Ballpark, a minor league facility near Daytona International Speedway. Roush fields cars in the Nextel Cup series for Matt Kenseth, Greg Biffle, Jamie McMurray, Carl Edwards and David Ragan, and has won series championships with Kenseth and Kurt Busch. An avid racing fan, Henry has been talking to Roush for several years about forming some sort of partnership. Henry is a co-founder of iracing.com, a company that allows computer users to play online racing simulation games — and Henry is said to spend hours playing the games himself. The deal represents a financial windfall for Roush, who started as a small drag racing team owner in the 1960s and entered NASCAR in 1988 with driver Mark Martin. more here http://www.charter.net/news/read.php...W C01L1_UNEWS |
