Good for Kasey! I wonder what he will do for the 2011 season. I wouldn't be surprised if Rick worked a deal with Stewart Hass to put Kasey in car out of his garage for a year.

Or would somebody else be given their walking papers??? Good move for both parties involved.

That #88 Driver hasn't been getting it done.

[Johnsonator]

Never though of the 88 getting the pink slip especially since he sells the most souvenirs. I was assuming he would be taking Mark Martins spot. Never know maybe there will be more drama before the official press release!

[harvey lee]

Highly doubt that the 88 will get his walking papers even with the tough times he has been having.

I would guess that Kasey will go into Mark's car.

[slipbobbin]

Looks like it will be the 5 car beginning in 2012-2015 season. Must mean mark is retiring again.

Kasey was on NASCAR Race Hub last night and he said that Rick is going to make sure that he is in a Hendrick backed car next year as well. I can't wait to how this is going to shake out.

i wonder if the rules permit a part time 5th car

or maybe mark and kasey will just swap spots lol

[lawdog]

I suspect you'll see a one year only third car at Stewart/Hass. I don't know what his other options are, unless they are ready to start up a Cup car with JR Motorsports. I'd bet the house one of those two has to be it...

Yawn.

Kasey should be listed with the most overated drivers.

Right there with Sorenson and Almendinger.

[LMITOUT]

Since Gordon is listed as the owner of the #48 doesn't that mean Hendrick has room for one more car, or did NASCAR clamp down on that too?

[lawdog]

Nope. Gordon and Rick are partners in that and I'm sure they count it against Rick.

[LMITOUT]

Ahhh.

Go HMS.
