The #85 owner bailed out of racing altogether about 1/3 way through the year.

Yeah, the #85 couldn't keep going.  From what I understood, the owner, Mr. Dixon, was having some serious health problems.  That is one of the main reason they closed up.  Other reasons would include money, I'm sure.

Did Kevin Lepage just slowly drop back all race?

Actually, he was Top Ten all day. But, they must have left a lugnut or something loose on a pit stop, because he came down pit lane twice under a caution, and started at the tail end of the field for the restart. He still worked his way back to the Top Fifteen, but got passed by some cars towards the end of the race.
