I hope he goes to Hendrick Motorsports. I have a friend named Ken who is an obsessive Earnhardt Jr./Sr. fan, and also an obsessive anti-Jeff Gordon fan.

I'm sure there are plenty of others across the country who feel the exact same way and I would find it sooooo funny if they were teammates next season. :lol:

Felipe Massa won the Spanish Grand prix for Ferrari with the McLaren Mercedes of Lewis Hamilton second and Fernando Alonso third, Kubica/BMW Sauber 4th, Coulthard/Red Bull Renault 5th, Rosberg/Williams Toyota 6th, Kovaleinen/Renault 7th and Sato/Super Aguri Honda 8th. So now, the rookie Hamilton leads the world championship, and he hasn't won a race yet!!!

That will be a VERY BAD DECISION, their is too many personalitys already their.

If Dale Jr. goes over to Joe Gibbs Racing, it will take away from Danny Hamilitons' ablity to shine.

Personally, I think he would be better off at RCR, that team needs a real big boost. Kevin Harvick can not keep the team going by himself, plus Dale is looking to COMPLIMENT with the new race team he wants to goto and it is the best bet to goto.

That is my personal oppinion, you take it for what is worth?

Casey Mears gets his first Nextel Cup win in the Coke 600. Only Hendrick driver I can stand. Been waiting for him to win for a while now. Good job Casey.

Big weekend for racing. Lewis Hamilton made history winning the F1 race. Todd Bodine won the Truck Race Friday. Carl Edwards won his second straight Bush Race. Jeff Gordon won a rained shorted cup race.

Oh, and Danica got her career best finish in the IRL race.

I caught the last few laps of that IRL race. Very exciting. It was a very good finish. Those three cars nose to tail made for something exciting.

Sources are saying it will be Hendrick and Kyle Bush is out and the move could happen this season in the very near future.

Seems Hotrod is right:

Expect the announcement that Hendrick will be Earnhardt's new home. :lol:

It is now official. Earnhard will drive for Hendrick for 5 years starting next season.

Dale Jr. said it was not about the money, Hendricks Motors Sports has what it takes for Dale Jr. to win a Nextel Cup.

It is going to be a wild ride next year!

Travis Kvapil finally took that #6 Truck to victory lane with a win at Michigan.

And a big congratulations to Stephen Leicht with his first ever Busch series win at Kentucky.

Carl Edwards returns to Victory Lane with his win at Michigan. It also means his motor coach driver can now shave.

My three drivers to watch are:

Dale Jr. He is due to win on a road course. Last two seasons he had the best car at Infineon during practice but fell out of the race early due to parts failure.

Truex Jr. In the last three races is there anyone hotter? Oh yeah he won at a road course in the Bush Series.

Montoya If can do in the Cup race what he did on the Road Course in Mexico City he will get his first win.

Truex's team has definitely been on a roll lately. Casey Mears and his crew are getting their act together as well.

And in a bad move Ron fellows will race the 96. Way to go Hall of Fame Racing. Raines has been doing a good job all year and that's how you repay him. Let him get the road experience.

Johnny Benson gets the truck win at Milwaukee.

Aric Almirola gets his first Busch win at Milwaukee, but Denny Hamlin took the checkered flag. (stupid call by the sponsor Rockwell Automotive)

Juan Pablo Montoya gets his first Nextel Cup win at Sonoma.
