I guess I get the monetary support being cut, but if they're going to continue to produce the parts, I don't understand why that support can't be maintained. I'm sure there's much more to it than I know, but how much of a market effect can that program have if only 20 -30 teams have to pay for them?

Personally, I'd like to see all of them stick it right in their a$$...........

Does this mean KJ is done? I wonder how much he has been paid so far and if that is enough to continue.

Was Cruz Pedregon's name really on the GM letter? Hasn't he been using the Toyota Solara since early '08? I'm really surprised that GM even offered support for the '09 season.

It is Tony who has the support from GM.

That was my bad, I've since adjusted the article. Should have known better.

What are these new (like Morgans) Ford PS motors? Are they essentially rebadged Mopar or GM stuff ala Ford Boss 500?

I think most had read the story at DRO already and knew what you meant

I figured it was Tony, but I just thought I'd post for clarification, no harm, no foul.

I wouldn't panic about any of the GM teams mentioned just yet, everyone thought WJ was parked when GM dropped him, til K&N came to the rescue.

Thanks for the update Bobby

Now if the UAW gets one of those letters, GM might be on to something.

I'll stay out of it. No need to thank me.
