Michael Annett, who drove the teams #46 Chevrolet SS Entry will be heading back to the Xfinity Series where he will drive the #5 Pilot/Flying J Chevrolet Camaro for JR Motorsports which leaves HScott Motorsports without sponsorship nor charters.

In August of 2013, Harry Scott Jr. purchased Phoenix Racing from longtime NASCAR team-owner James Finch. Justin Allgaier joined the organization 2013 where he shared the #51 with Kyle Larson (4 races), Michael McDowell (1 Race), and Ryan Truex (2 Races). The Following Season Justin Allgaier raced the #51 in all but one race where Bobby Labonte raced. In 2015 Allgaier would run a full season in the #51 gaining the team it's first Top-10 finish since Scott took ownership. Along with Allgaier, Michael Annett would run the teams second car in the 46. The team would DNQ at Talladega in October. Clint Bowyer would take over for a departing Justin Allgaier who would head to JR Motorsports. Bowyer would remain at HScott for one season with some support from Stewart Haas Racing, where he would head in 2017. Bowyer gained the team three Top-10 finishes and finish 27th in points. Annett would have another dismal season finishing 36th in points failing to gain a Top-10 finish.
HScott Motorsports with Justin Marks has won the last four NASCAR K&N Pro Series East Titles. Driving the cars are as listed, Justin Haley (2016), William Byron (2015), Ben Rhodes (2014), and Dylan Kwasniewski (2013). It's unknown on the future of that team at this time. (Koelle,2016)
