Kahn
Dinger
Sadler
Menard

i like that team.

that means McMurray will be in the 1 car next year and Sorenson's 15 minutes of fame are up. hope he had a good savings plan.

Funny that Kahne ends up in a Yates Ford after all after the lawsuits and whatnot that were filed or at least threatened (I don't remember exactly how it all went down) by Yates/Ford when Kahne began driving for Evernham/Dodge.

Reed has been OK for his age and caliber of equipment. That said, barring a few top 15's strung together on an also ran team, he's a casualty of the circumstances.

Look out for #9 with those engines.

Petty still getting tossed around. Ever since the Boston Ventures merger they've been really unstable.

True, sad in a way, but if nothing else the Petty name will be tied to a winner occasionally now. By the status quo that wasnt going to happen again. How about Brian's COT helping the small teams survive!

How is teaming with Yates gonna help Petty? That's a move in the wrong direction. Petty probably would have been better off going to toyota. Kahne will be gone after next year and they didn't want Sadler this year. Menard is only in a cup car because his daddy has bought his ride for him.

because Ford is capable of factory support, dodge isnt.

that, and like Kahne said, Petty has the cars and RYR had the engines. perfect fit.

i believe the only person with any kind of help from Dodge is Kahne.

The drop Yates has had since Jarrett/Rudd has been amazing, crazy really. With Ray E pushing the buttons and Ford support, they should right the ship, especially in terms of Sponsorship, Kasey is set, and if i owned a company i'd love to have my brand on AJ's Car. Menard will be sponsored by family or elsewhere, and Elliot can run with the big boys given a good car, though i don't see him being around much longer before going to Schrader status as a driver for whoever has a sponsored ride.

Ray Evernham is gone but they should get better with the Roush motor under the hood. I think people see what Stewart was able to do with Hendrick support and feel like they can get good results with Roush support.
