    I think they shut down in 2008, so no. He does not currently have anything to do with the team.

    He was a part owner at one time of Hamilton-Rensi Motorsports. But, looking at their website, it looks like they have changed the name back to Team Rensi Motorsports, so it looks like Bobby no longer has a part in the team.

    Homecoming for Hamilton; new sponsor onboard: With the new sponsor, Direct Auto Insurance on board, Bobby Hamilton Jr. will strap into his #6 Rick Ware Racing entry at the Nashville Superspeedway for the NASCAR Camping World Series Nashville 200 in front of a welcoming hometown crowd. "It's a big weekend for us. Nashville is always a special place for me. It seems like half the grandstand is either friends or family, and we've brought on Direct Auto Insurance as a new primary sponsor. I can't thank them enough for stepping up to the plate and making this weekend that much more special," Hamilton said. Success is no stranger to Hamilton Jr. at Nashville. With only 3 total starts in the truck series at Nashville, Hamilton Jr. has scored a pole, two 4th place finishes, and he has three top 5's in the NASCAR Nationwide series.(Rick Ware Racing PR)(8-2-2010)

    It's funny I used to hate him when he was winning in nationwide in 2003 but I think I overlooked how great he was for the series because now we don't see nationwide regulars win anything and I hope that NASCAR will bring that back next year.

    That was back when Cup drivers didn't invade the series and throw a fit when a NW regular who is in contention for the title actually races them the same way they always race.
