Front Row Motorsports announced a switch to Ford Fusions and named Travis Kvapil and rookie Kevin Conway to its expanded two-car team.
This announcement brings the Ford car count up to ten teams racing in NASCAR's Sprint Cup Series.
In 2009, the team ran John Andretti in the No 34 Chevrolet (photo) and Tony Raines in the No 37 car.
Jamie Allison, director, Ford North America Motorsports said "We have said all along that we wanted to add additional teams to our program, and are pleased Front Row will transition to Ford cars, engines and technology support in 2010.
"Obviously this is the next step for our guys and the organization," said Bob Jenkins, team owner.
"To have support from Ford, along with the quality engines from Roush/Yates, this is a big leap forward for us. Travis is a champion and a veteran of this series. We expect him to take us to the next level and at the same time be a great mentor to Kevin who is competing for rookie of the year. I have confidence that they can help us get to the next level."
