the down hill side of this year is upon us and a few drivers may or may not have their seats attached for next year----yet.
Point being is this, Where will Ryan Newman be at in Feb.2013.
With Tony
With Richard petty
With Penske
With ???
I asked the question-- now all y'all answer or at least tell your take on this please..
It wouldn't surprise me if Newman stays SHR. As we get closer to Richmond, the field of free agents is going to be huge. It may prove more prudent to secure something earlier than later.
Carol,
I'm inclined to agree with your statement. Wouldn't surprise me either for Ryan to stay put.
In my Wrangler days, our prime consideration when we began our sponsorship was to find a solid team. Our view at the time was that there were only a very few good solid teams around, but many solid drivers.
If you inked a sponsorship deal with a really good team, you could pretty well have your choice of drivers. Funny how it came to be that our Wrangler sponsorship was much more identified with the driver, Dale Earnhardt than with any of the three different teams we backed (2 different times at RCR) between 1980-1987.
