On 1 March, Lucky Seven Motorsports made an announcement that Lucky Seven & Backroad Bandits would be breaking a short-lived Technical Alliance, along with a buyout of the Team Conti Sim Performance Dash Series Charter #39. Instead, a new alliance would be formed with Tipton-Harding Motorsports along with a sharing of the #39 charter. According to team owner of Lucky Seven Motorsports Cameron Albertson, it was a mutual separation. When pressed for details regarding the split, Albertson refused to comment further.
We had some creative differences and decided it would work out better if we parted ways. However, we’re excited for the new opportunities that this new alliance with THM will bring to the Dash Series program.

However with the announcement of a new alliance with Tipton-Harding Motorsports I reached out to team owner of Tipton-Harding Motorsports, Stewart Harding for a comment on the situation. In my conversation with Harding, we talked about how they plan to provide primary support to the TCSPDS program, however they are willing to provide more support in the future.
We have no plans to make any changes, and we believe Jacob Quill will be the best driver for the 39, but THM is grateful for the opportunity to work with Lucky Seven to help make the 39 competitive.

When reached for Backroad Bandit Racing’s comment on the situation, Nim Silva didn’t have a lot to say, choosing to instead mention their alliance with Kallhoff-Deitch Motorsports.
It wasn’t really a publicly known alliance… but we have an actual alliance with Kallhoff-Deitch Motorsports, and we are excited to see what we do with them.

We’re just a couple days away from heading to the Circuit of the Americas for the Team Conti Sim Performance Dash Series. So definitely have to pay attention to the 39 these next couple weeks, we may see the 39 sink or swim.
