Ole Tony must be on some serious pain meds.... Hard to see Harvick going along with this too...maybe Stewart is selling his part of the team?

Sure would be interesting to know what precipitated this engine brand change. And that's all that this will amount to is a changing of engine conceptions and technology provisions by Ford Motor Company.
Stewy is a lot of things, and some are bad things, but he's no fool in regards to where, and by whom, his bread is buttered and Chevrolet and Hendrick Motor Sports must not have been laying on enough butter to suit him.
Since Stewy & Haas are a satellite team of Hendrick, and Hendrick is the top banana Chevrolet team in NASCAR, it'd also be very interesting as to how this relationship will hold up throughout this lame duck season with Chevy for Stewy & Haas.
However, I'm sure Stewy & Haas have it all figured out. Ya' can't do what Gene Haas did in regards to the IRS and only serve 16 months in prison without being on your game and have a crack bank of shysters on retainer. -
Where's Harvick gonna go? Its not like there are a lot of top teams to move to. Tony is a business man, maybe Ford wanted another team other then Penske to run well and finish well. I figure a lot of money was thrown their way to switch.
Also maybe Tony and Roger Penske wanted to deal. Penske may have wanted another top team to move to Ford?Comment

Maybe Danica will finally be done also. One can only hope so.Comment

Danica's days are numbered for sure. Maybe if Rico can run well in the trucks and Busch (or whatever they're called now) series he'll move into her ride. We can hope, can't we?Originally posted by plunks7 View PostComment

Danica and Ricky are buying Tony's part with Fords help hahaha I just find it crazy to take the team who is fastest week in and out and in all reality should've won the title last year as well, to partner up with someone who hasn't done diddly squat in years, Let alone Tony's long term loyalty to being a GM guy. There's got to be more to the story.Comment

I do not want to get into a debate on this, but I think it is a smart move. I was surprised, but Ford wanted another top team badly and I am sure there will be plenty of everything coming their (SHR) way. Roger and Tony are also good friends, which doesn't hurt. Now a couple other things. Roush is in decline as we all know, and do not have the personnel, so Ford was not interested in financing more on their behalf. I also think this MIGHT be a good thing for Ganassi. They just might replace the departing SHR with Hendrick. It would be great for the hugely talented Kyle Larson to get more competitive.Comment

Tony has now explained his decision. As far as I am concerned, no surprises why. Start with cutting the chord with HMS, and good old autonomy that Ford gives him.Comment

So, I'm sure that means Bowyers cars will be sporting Andy Durham RYR's next year!Turn LEFT, Vote RIGHT!Comment

IN your dreams... as long as Danica is bringing dollars, and she is, her spot is secure... of course I have to assume by your comment that your a far better driver then she is so get your funding and Tony will hire you, as long as your putting up more money the she is...Originally posted by CIRF View PostComment

Silly boy, it ain't about the racing, its about the money.....where have you been.... I have met Rico a couple years ago.. seemed like a good kid... I didn't really know much about him at the time, but he won the midget race that night driving away... I didn't know till after the race that he was a driver... imagine my surprise when he got out of the car... and yes, I said it out loud...Originally posted by old fan View PostComment
