Roush Fenway Racing announced today that Donnie Wingo, formerly the crew chief for Jamie McMurray, will assume the crew chiefing duties on the No. 6 UPS Ford driven by David Ragan in the Sprint Cup Series next season.

Wingo, who joined RFR at the start of the 2009 season, was the crew chief for McMurray's 22nd place points effort this season. Wingo became available after McMurray announced that he would leave the team for Earnhardt Ganassi Racing next season.

"It's an honor to have the opportunity to work with David Ragan next season as well as our sponsor UPS,” Wingo said. “UPS has been a great sponsor in NASCAR for years and I'm truly looking forward to the chance to get the No. 6 Ford the finishes it deserves. I'm glad to remain with Roush Fenway Racing because I believe in the success we'll be able to achieve in 2010."

Ragan's former crew chief, Jimmy Fennig, will assume a research and development position at Roush Fenway Racing.

“I’m proud of my time with Jimmy (Fennig), he’s taught me a lot over the years, but now I’m looking forward to next year and working with Donnie Wingo and his engineer Derek (Stamets),” Ragan said. “Those two are a great combination and it will be fun to work with someone new with fresh ideas. I’m excited to test a few times this off season and get things moving forward for next season. We’ll be ready for Daytona with a fast UPS Ford.”

The 2010 season will mark Ragan's fifth year of Sprint Cup Series racing. Since Unadilla, Ga. native came to the series in 2006, he has scored eight top-five and 19 top-ten finishes in 110 starts. He finished 27th in Sprint Cup Series driver points this season, his lowest in full-time Sprint Cup Series competition.
