National Speed Sport News is reporting that Larry Dixon has been released by Bob Vandergriff Racing and is seeking another ride, a team management position, or a media position for the 2016 season.

After the announcement in early December that Leah Pritchett would be joining the team, bringing a sponsor and running the full tour in the seat that Dixon had occupied in 2015 there were questions as to what his role at BVR would be.

With an intact management team, talented crew chiefs, and a running operation many on the outside could not see where he “fit" in that program. Apparently last week he and the team parted ways.
