Reutimann to take over #45 for Petty in 2009? Look for David Reutimann to be announced soon as the replacement for Kyle Petty in the #45 car, something the Petty folks would rather we not know about just yet.(Yahoo Sports)(7-10-2008)
They need to do something to the 45 car to make it more competitive. To me it seems like a step down for Reutimann, but with sponsors leaving there may be no more room at MWR for him. I was hoping Aaron's would step up to cup on the 44 or that one of the other teams that are looking (#12) would pick up Reutimann. He has shown he can drive in the Nationwide series.

Oh yeah, and as for Stewart... I think it's worth the gamble for him. There's alot of benefit$ to ownership if you're successful. Of course you can loose your shirt too. It'll let him drive a Chevy like he wants to. I'm not sure if Logano is ready for Cup but I guess we'll find out now.

I think Truex should go to the 20 car, just my opinion.

I just don't like seeing Tony drive under a different number, it just won't be the same without that big orange number 20. And if Logano replaces him in the #20 (which is very likely) it is also very likely I will stop rooting for JGR all together. True, he got lucky and won a NWS race, but there is more talent out there that is looking for a better ride then Joey. The kid is good, but he's just a kid, and I bet that you give someone who is struggling like Truex Jr. or Said a ride in the #20 and they'd be competitive every weekend. I'm glad I held off on slapping a #20 on my car though, I kinda guessed with would happen.

Haha! I've always wanted to get a 1999 Pontiac GranPrix and mark it up like Stewart's rookie car, gawd that would look hot. And Batman, you really didn't do that to your car, did you? I really really really hope that Tony gets to keep Home Depot, at least Jr. got to keep part of his number (8 to 88)...different number, different manufacturer, different sponsor...that's a little too much for me to take in since I've been a fan of Stewart since he started racing in the top tier.

from a collectors viewpoint, expect anything with Tony and Home Depot on it to skyrocket in value, especially this years cars his one and only year driving a Toyota. I'm surpirsed no one has mentioned this ( or have they) is Tony going to take Zippy with him next year???

I did hear that Zippy has a clause in his contract that if Tony left he could opt-out of his remaining contract. So it will be interesting to see if he excercises this option or stays with JGR.

Yea, I heard the same thing that DE3 heard, from what I know Zippy actually plans to stay with JGR for 2009 - the article was on NASCAR.com this morning but now it's been replaced by the power rankings article...if you want try to find it, I'm too lazy to right now
