| Juan Pablo to A Competitive Team?
No, not a rumor nor anything known to be in the works. I just got to thinking, how competitive would Montoya be in a Hendrick, Gibbs or Roush ride? I am going to say he would be winning races, not dominating by any sort, but a contender most races. He is acknowledged to have excellent car control, he is agressive, and hungry to prove his ability. It is obvious the Dodges are the least competitive brand, and Ganassi not a strong Dodge team. What do you think?

| I think if Tony Stewart jumps ship on Gibbs Racing, JPM should be considered.

| That POS should be considered for nothing more than a ride in Cart where the sport can't get any lower

Certainly equates to a better rating than POS wouldn't you agree. It is nonsensical rants like that which draw criticism.
To win a Sprint Cup race in todays highly competitive field of drivers/teams is a big deal IMO, no matter how it comes about. He had to pass a lot of cars through the course of the race to be in a position to win. I know many NASCAR fans are less than enamored with road course races, but there is where you find real driving talent - T. Labonte, Bill Elliott, Mark Martin, Rusty Wallace, J. Gordon, T. Stewart, J. Johnson, Ky. Busch, R. Gordon, Dale, SR, and I am surely leaving out someone.

| JPM's resume stands on it's own. he has earned any accolade that comes his way.
certainly more accomplished of a race car driver than 3 of the 4 hype machines in tnfan07's signature. | |
