I think the 11 deal is done.

I don't think Harvick is going anywhere either.

B. Labonte? I don't know although they keep saying he's not going anywhere.

Rudd is supposedly going to the 42 and maybe Schrader to the 21.

I see Sterling Marlin signed with MB2 now to be Nemechek's teammate.

This could be one of the biggest silly seasons in recent memory.

Lots of possibilities there... In some ways, I hope that a couple of the drivers looking for rides get the chane to run with a good team.. I think Wimmer could be a top 10-15 driver with better equipment.

Also, two more silly season things:

From what I understand, DEI is losing the #15 and NAPA as a sponsor.. Mikey is possibly taking both with him to BDR... unheard of before, but why not let him have the #, as long as DEI gets a replacement # for it? As far as that team goes, it's my understanding also that they're going to put Paul Menard in the car on a limited schedule next year, to have all 3 teams running full schedules in '07. They also have been in negotiations with RCR to possibly combine the two operations... which could end up putting Jr. in the #3, Truex in the #8, Menard in the #1, and take it from there...

Then.. whatever happened to Ward Burton ???

The guy is a pretty good driver, but lost his ride at BDR, then got NOTHING this year?? Did he have some kind of blacklist thing happen to him???

Just saw Bobby Labonte will be driving the Richard Petty car #43 next season
