context_page_description: Turner Scott Motorsports, formerly Turner Motorsports was an American professional stock car racing team that last competed in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series, the Nationwide Series, the Camping World Truck Series, the NASCAR K&N Pro Series East and the ARCA Racing Series. The team was based in Mooresville, North Carolina co-owned by Texas businessman Steve Turner and North Carolina businessman Harry Scott Jr.. The team fielded cars utilizing Hendrick Motorsports engines. Co-owner Scott also owned the unaffiliated Sprint Cup Series team HScott Motorsports.
  From 2003 through 2010, Turner Scott's Nationwide Series operations were those of Braun Racing, who for many years ran cars numbered 32 and 38 for Jason Leffler and Kasey Kahne with sponsors Great Clips and Fraternal Order of Eagles. The former-Braun operations also included entries of former Busch Series teams ppc Racing and Akins Motorsports.
  The team ceased operations following the 2014 season due to financial issues between co-owners Scott and Turner. After winning a lawsuit against Turner, Scott took the remaining equipment from the team to start HScott Motorsports with Chip Ganassi.
