Almirola’s future still uncertain

Aric Almirola’s roller-coaster 2009 NASCAR season continues. Nearly four months removed from his last start in Earnhardt Ganassi Racing’s No. 8 Sprint Cup car, Almirola has found a home — at least temporarily — in the Camping World Truck Series with Billy Ballew Motorsports. Fielding a truck for Almirola without sponsorship is possible but uncertain, team owner Billy Ballew says. So Almirola, who has spent the last few months searching for a ride in any of NASCAR’s three national series, has no more guarantees about his future now than he did when a lack of sponsorship forced Earnhardt Ganassi to park its No. 8 car after the season’s seventh race.
