It was owned by former NASCAR driver [[Phil Parsons]], and most recently fielded the No. 98 Ford for [[Josh Wise]]. The team was formerly owned by Phil's wife Marcia as well as Randy and Stacey Humphrey (hence the original name MSRP: Marcia, Stacey, Randy, Phil). For the first few years of its [[Nationwide Series]] and Sprint Cup operations, the team was infamous for being a [[start and park]] organization, meaning that the team qualified a car for races, but eventually parked it after just a few laps to avoid the costs of running a full race, even though the car was perfectly able to continue on.<ref name="quitting">Rob Zeller, "[http://www.caranddriver.com/features/the-quitting-game The Quitting Game]", [[Car and Driver]], Feb. 2009, pp. 96–100.</ref> The bad publicity generated by the practice led to Phil Parsons`s torefusal ~~refuse~~ to answer questions about MSRP in 2008,<ref name="quitting" /> but subsequently Parsons justified the practice by saying that "we furnished a living for some families, so there was some good that came out of it."<ref>{{cite web \|url=http://www.scenedaily.com/news/articles/nationwideseries/MSRP_Motorsports_to_field_two_Nationwide_teams_.html \|title=MSRP Motorsports to field two Nationwide teams \|author=Lee Montgomery \|publisher=SceneDaily.com \|date=2009-02-04 \|access-date=2010-02-11}}</ref> In 2009, MSRP continued with two Nationwide Series teams and finally finished a race, while it also added a Sprint Cup team under the Prism Motorsports name that qualified for 30 races but only finished two. After the season, the entire team became known as Prism Motorsports. In 2010, the team had two Sprint Cup teams, No. 55 and No. 66, led by drivers [[Michael McDowell (NASCAR)\|Michael McDowell]] and [[Dave Blaney]], which fielded [[Toyota Camry]]s under a technical alliance with [[Michael Waltrip Racing\|MWR]]. Three drivers rotated among the two Nationwide Series cars (90 and 91) in 2010: [[Danny O'Quinn Jr.]], [[David Gilliland]], and [[Chase Miller]]. Car No. 55 crew chief Zach McGowan tweeted on November 18 that the team would be shutting down after the 2010 season-ending race at Homestead,<ref name="PRISM">[http://www.rubbins-racin.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=64276&p=805946 PRISM might be gone? - Rubbin's Racin'] {{webarchive\|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110715211921/http://www.rubbins-racin.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=64276&p=805946 \|date=2011-07-15 }} Nov. 18th, 2010: "Our team will be shutting down after this week. I hate it for our guys. I have enjoyed working everyone. We all made the best out of bad situation. Good luck to everyone." - Zach McGowan.</ref> but this was denied by team owner Randy Humphrey.<ref name= "PRISM 2">[http://jayski.com/cupnews.htm#20101118s Prism Motorsports to shut down operations; maybe not?] {{Webarchive\|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100514105426/http://www.jayski.com/cupnews.htm#20101118s \|date=2010-05-14 }} Jayski, Nov. 20, 2010.</ref> No information was available regarding PRISM's Nationwide teams. The team returned in 2011 as '''HP Racing''' with McDowell behind the wheel of the No. 66 Toyota with Gene Nead as crew chief. Unlike 2009, the team intended to run a limited schedule, running only a few full races but ended up running the full schedule. The team ran with Ford for 2012 and 2013 before switching to Chevrolet for the 2014 season. The team and driver Josh Wise gained popularity in 2014 after an internet campaign with [[Dogecoin]] and [[Reddit]], leading the No. 98 to be voted into the [[2014 NASCAR Sprint All-Star Race]]. Line 165: The No. 98 car was a [[NASCAR]] [[Sprint Cup Series]] team that debuted in 2009 as the No. 66 under a technical alliance with [[Michael Waltrip Racing\|MWR]], which supplied the team's [[Toyota Camry]], engines and technical support.<ref>"[http://www.nascar.com/2009/news/headlines/cup/02/04/mwaltrip.tlabonte.prism/index.html Waltrip says alliance with Prism Motorsports helpful]", [[NASCAR]], 4 February 2009.</ref> [[Terry Labonte]] ran the No. 66 for the [[2009 Daytona 500]], where he finished 24th. [[Dave Blaney]] ran the rest of the season, except for the [[Aarons 499]] at Talladega as he was away with his family. [[Michael McDowell (NASCAR)\|Michael McDowell]] attempted to qualify for the event but failed to do so. According to Blaney, Prism had anticipated attempting to run all of the laps in "six or eight" Sprint Cup races in which the team was able to secure full sponsorship, which included [[Window World]] for the [[Daytona 500]] and [[Aaron's, Inc.\|Aaron's]] for the [[Coca-Cola 600]]. The [[Denny Hamlin]] Foundation was on the car at [[Lowes Motor Speedway]], Talladega and Texas, with Blaney only making the race at Talladega. Ultimately, the team qualified for 31 of the 36 Sprint Cup races in the 2009 season – 30 by Blaney and 1 by Labonte—but only ran two complete races (the Daytona 500 and the Coca-Cola 600). For the remainder of 2009, the No. 66 car was a start and park team, much like their Nationwide Series counterparts.<ref>{{cite web\|url=http://www.vindy.com/news/2009/may/11/blaney-blessed-at-squeezing-a-buck/ \|title=Blaney blessed at squeezing a buck \|date=2009-05-11\|author=John Bassetti\|publisher=[[Youngstown Vindicator]]\|access-date=2009-05-29}}</ref> Blaney returned to the No. 66 in 2010. Again, Prism struggled with sponsorship, as it was unable to find a sponsor for the team for even the [[2010 Daytona 500]], and Blaney subsequently failed to qualify for it.<ref name="sponsor" /> Blaney made the team's first race of the year in the 2010 [[Auto Club 500]], qualifying fifth,<ref>{{cite web\|url=http://sports.espn.go.com/rpm/nascar/cup/news/story?id=4929636\|title=Jamie McMurray sits on pole in California week after winning Daytona 500\|work=ESPN.com\|date=20 February 2010 \|access-date=1 August 2015}}</ref> leading four laps before finishing 41st. The 66 was later impounded by NASCAR. The team was able to rebound from the impound, and ran the whole entire race, finishing 29th at the Shelby American. Blaney left the team after Watkins Glen, and [[Scott Riggs]] took over the No. 66 for the next four races, qualifying only once at [[Bristol Motor Speedway]], Likewise, [[Jason Leffler]] drove the No. 66 for four races, only qualifying at [[Auto Club Speedway]]. [[Johnny Sauter]] failed to make each of the three races he attempted with the team, and [[Mike Bliss]] drove the car at Texas and Homestead. While the 66 team frequently [[Start and park\|start-and-parked]], it occasionally showed competitive speed. Blaney qualified 8th, 4th, and 3rd at the [[2009 Food City 500]], the [[2009 Sharpie 500]], and the [[2010 Food City 500]], respectively (all at [[Bristol Motor Speedway\|Bristol]]), as well as a 5th place start spot at the [[2009 Auto Club 500]], though the team finished 41st or worst in all four races.<ref>{{cite web\|url=http://www.racing-reference.info/drivdet/blaneda01/2009/W\|title=Dave Blaney\|work=racing-reference.info\|access-date=1 August 2015}}</ref><ref>{{cite web\|url=http://www.racing-reference.info/drivdet/blaneda01/2010/W\|title=Dave Blaney\|work=racing-reference.info\|access-date=1 August 2015}}</ref> Line 234: ! rowspan=13\| 66 ! rowspan=13\| [[Toyota]] \| style="background:#CFCFFF;"\| [[2009 Daytona 500\|DAY]]<br /><small>24</small> \| colspan=35\| ! rowspan=3\| 42nd Line 240: \|- !
