Swan Racing announced Monday the addition of veteran NASCAR crew chief Tony Eury, Jr. to the organization that recently purchased the No. 30 Sprint Cup team and retained David Stremme to drive the full schedule in 2013.



Eury, Jr. served as crew chief for Danica Patrick during the 2012 Nationwide Series season prior to departing JR Motorsports in September.



"I am really impressed with the team Swan Racing is building and I am proud to be part of it," Eury, Jr. said in a statement. "I am looking forward to working with David Stremme behind the wheel and with competition director Steve Hmiel."



The team will carry sponsorship from Swan Energy with more announcements expected over the coming weeks leading up to Daytona in February.



"We have a long-term vision for Swan Racing and the addition of Tony, Jr. is another step in that process. Tony brings a world of experience to Swan Racing and will be part of our long-term success," said team owner Brandon Davis.
