Not meeting notability for business people or for sports, beyond this, rest are simply discussion of the racing teams he's worked with. Oaktree b (talk) 01:37, 17 July 2023 (UTC)

 * But he’s a team owner with a storied history in the sport? I understand your take on the matter absolutely but he’s the key figure to 2 of the top development programs in stock car racing currently and is a team owner, what’s the difference in him and other team owners with wiki pages? He just happens to not currently own a team, and if most crew chiefs like Chris Gabehart can have Wikipedia pages I see no reason a team owner can’t have one also, thank you for your time.

 * Keep per WP:GNG. He's been covered in the Courier Journal, The Roanoke Times, the Knight Ridder Tribune, Bristol Herald Courier, and there was a Ranier Racing Museum covered in the Associated Press.  APK  whisper in my ear  05:31, 17 July 2023 (UTC)

 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Keep - clearly notable per refs found above. For the future, NASCAR team owners are probably always notable given the coverage of teams and drivers. I see stuff about them weekly.
