Jeff Green takes over the #0 Best Buy Chevy for 06.


For the fourth straight year the Haas owned #0 Best Buy Chevy will start another season with a new driver. Last year Mike Bliss piloted the machine to a disappointing 28th place finish in the points, resulting in his dismissal from the team. Bliss has been replaced by Jeff Green, who departed from Petty Enterprises at the end of the 2005 season. Green finished one spot lower than Bliss in the standings last year and has yet to break through with a win of his own in the cup series but for now Green will give his best effort to put the Gene Haas owned #0 in victory lane in 2006.

Team: Haas CNC Racing Sponsor: Best Buy Crew Chief: Undetermined

2005 Stats (Bliss):

0 Wins
0 Poles
0 Top Fives
2 Top Tens
28th in Standings

What to expect from the #0 team? Well to be honest, not much. Even though I do believe they will do better than 28th (maybe 25th). Green will earn a few top tens but the overall goal for now should be a win and maybe the top twenty in points.

**Update: Green will be driving for CNC Haas but the number has been changed from #0 to #66. Bootie Barker will remain the crew chief and Best Buy will become the primary sponsor.
