Mike Wallace, who drove in the season-opening Daytona 500 for James Finch, has been hired to replace Jason Keller as driver of Finch's No. 1 Dodge in the Busch Series on an interim basis, according to a Phoenix Racing release.
"We have the utmost respect for Jason and his accomplishments in the sport and wish him the very best," Finch was quoted in the release.
Keller had been behind the wheel for all eight races this season, with a best of 11th at Daytona. In 16 seasons, Keller had won 10 Busch Series races, the most recent coming at Milwaukee in 2003.
Wallace has four Busch Series victories in 237 starts over 16 seasons.

I do not think this is a good move for James Finch. Keller is 12 in Busch points and is 413 points behind leader Kevin Harvick. Keller also has raced the #1 car 15 in owners points and is 422 points behind the #21 car. To me, this is not a good move on Finch's part.
