TRG Motorsports will not return to the Sprint Cup Series in 2012, according to a report from Sirius Speedway. The No. 71 team finished outside of the top 35 in owner’s points and would have been required to qualify for the first five races of 2012 on speed. Andy Lally drove the car last season, with Mike Bliss replacing him in the season finale at Homestead-Miami Speedway.

Team owner Kevin Buckler did not comment.
