Stewart Haas to FORD???

[mantooth]

It think it has to do with Haas's deal in the F1, there is no support in F1 from Chevy

Clayton have seen rico race , this kid is the real deal , much better driver than Gordon was at his age no slam on Jeff just stating the facts , plus does have a lil money behind but real you some wine with that cheese lol

I won't car as far to say Rico is better then Gordon at this age. Gordon was pretty dam good. He went out in a sprint car at 13 years old at little Springfield and some of the other drivers were complaining that that kid had no business being on the track until he went out and put it on them and then they said who is that kid.

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...

Assume anything you want, I will only say this, you're the first silly enough to assume that I'm a driver at all, let alone a better driver than Danica! The bloom is beginning to go off the rose in regards to Danica, and I'll stand by my statement that her days are numbered.

I don't see Rico breaking into the main NASCAR series. Just don't see it happening.

What makes you say that, Clayton? Rico is a novelty that is also a very good driver. He is someone that would be instantly recognizable and that usually equates to selling product and that's what the name of the game is these days. I've gotta' disagree on this one. If Rico can be even moderately successful in either of the 2 lower national divisions of NASCAR he'll get a shot at Cup.

I remember those days Kid. Gordo had every young girl 3 years on either side of puberty squealing in the grandstands every time his name was mentioned over the PA. It was downright annoying at the Fairgrounds when he was racing a USAC midget and Silver Crown car during the State Fair. No matter what, Gordo held his own at a very young age, for sure.

I saw Gordon race a lot in his sprint car days. I saw Stewart race a lot in his sprint car days. Obviously both were great. AS for Rico, he is terrific in a sprint car too. Does that translate into Nascar? We will get a chance to see, he has a truck ride that will give him an opportunity to show his potential. That is always a good thing when in doubt, the driver has a chance to show his stuff.

Oh don't get wrong I'm a firm believer in Rico, I watch him race both his midget and his sprint car and he can flat out get it. I believe he will make it in NASCAR given enough time. You know how it is now a days they want results now.

Usually, but not always a driver who is going to do well in Nascar shows some talent pretty quickly. No guarantees for anyone making the transition. I won't hold the Daytona fiasco against him though. LOL

[ClampedUp]

Whether it's Bowyer or Patrick I look for Stewart to make a power move to get Larson from Ganassi when his contract is up and one of those two will be packing their helmet bag looking for a ride.

I still feel this move is as much to do with Stewart wanting out of the shadows of HMS as it is Haas wanting to bring in an American manufacture to F-1 like he stated we wants to do.

[Stan Donnit]

Maybe if Rico can run well in the trucks and Busch (or whatever they're called now) series he'll move into her ride.

Is he tall enough to ride that ride...
