Is Turner Motorsports going to participate in any Cup races in 2013? They ran the Coke Zero 400 this year with Bill Elliott, but I'm not sure if they ran any other races or not.
They do have potential to be a great Cup team.

The new Fusion looks fantastic with the Wood Bros livery on it
It'll look even better with a miller lite scheme on it
Well they still have ways to go on their Nationwide program.

Because he is the most talented and has a NSCS championship. Unlike Hamlin and Busch.

As Obama would say changes for 2013 cars:
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. -- NASCAR unveiled a new look for the 2013 Sprint Cup Series car on Saturday, an integral and exciting step in the rollout process of the sixth generation race car.
"These changes are an extension of the unprecedented collaboration with the auto manufacturers on the 2013 car, great industry feedback and our focus on increasing fan affinity as part of NASCAR's Industry Action Plan," said Steve O'Donnell, NASCAR senior vice president of racing operations, who introduced the new design at Homestead-Miami Speedway.
The sixth generation car look will debut with the opening of the 2013 Speedweeks, highlighted by the 55th running of the Daytona 500 on Feb. 24 at Daytona International Speedway. Among the updates:
* The driver's last name featured on the windshield;
* Sponsor decals will not be permitted on the headlights and taillights, two key distinguishing characteristics of the auto manufacturers' brand;
* Car numbers will be moved from the lights to the front and rear bumpers;
* A single sponsor logo will be permitted on the roof under the number;
* Team sponsor decals will be permitted to extend past the front edge of the b-post;
* "Step and repeat" / background patterns will be permitted on the sides of the car;
* Due to the slightly smaller car, the car number will be reduced by 10% and the contingency decals will be reduced to 26 square inches.

Just while we're on Turner Motorsports, is James Buescher remaining in the truck series for another year or is he going to step up to Nationwide full time next year?

No idea but the Jayski Nationwide Team Chart says Alligator isn't signed for next season (Although he's expected to be back) and the 30 is vacant.
The Truck chart simply says "2013 plans unknown" for the 30. Also, Jeb Burton just signed with them to run a full time Truck schedule with some Nationwide races. So my guess is another Truck season with him and Burton splitting time in the 30 on the Nationwide side.

Who splitting the 30? It wouldn't surprise me to see Justin out because he did do ok, he wasn't a stand out really for them. James might be taking his place in nationwide, which leaves spot for Jeb to slide in. Nelson probably is trying to get better deal as he is a strong guy for them last half of season. 38 won't change either but might see Sweet in more races.
