2014 Preview: Team Harden

Owner- Brent Harden
2013 Standings- 9th / 2014 Projection- 5th
The disappointing 2013 season should only spur the team for this year. They cut Jamie Simms, and picked up the best free agent available. Morello and Unger have the opportunity to establish the building blocks for the future starting now

Scott Unger / 4 / Chick-Fil-A Ford Fusion
2013 Standings- 12th / 2014 Projection- 12th
They put a winning driver in a car that had issues running last season. Unger's main problem was the amount of finishes over 10th. He needs to show Dumas that he deserved to stay in the 12, so expect Unger to have better runs this year. Now that the 4 crew has a guy who has won in the series, they will look to him to earn Team Harden their first victory.

Tommy Morello / 21 / Kellog's Frosted Flakes Ford Fusion
2013 Standings- 7th / 2014 Projection- 7th
The year started out so positive, but when you have 4 finishes of 19th or worse in 5 races, the wheels are bound to fall off. But Morello fought adversity and rattled off 5 straight top 10s. Delete the DNFs, and the 21 had a pretty good season. But no trip to victory lane hurt the 21 in the points. The goal for the 21 should be to win a race. The boost in morale would be huge and might spur them to a championship.

  1. They picked up the best free agent available. Translation nobody wanted him but he's better then what we had
