Newman

FOX Sports on MSN - NASCAR - Penske, Newman to split after 2008

Biggest odds that he goes to Stewart's operation??

I'd say it's so likely I wouldn't even bet money on it. Hope Ryan and Tony do well next year!

I'd rather see him go to JGR....I don't see Ryan and Tony meshing well...

Just shows you how tough sprint cup is that Penske struggles. Big move for Newman to a basic start up team from Penske.

One could argue that Penske is down the chain right now because Ryan and Rusty insisted on running different cars and not really getting along. The way Ryan was quoted, "I'm going to look at other options if Penske's performance doesn't improve.", well it irked me. Theoretically you would think that the driver has a lot to do with performance. But I would like to thank Ryan from confirming what I knew: Cup racing is 80% car. He just rubbed me the wrong way with his comments on a team that gave him his first start, Won him a ton of poles, and put an engine in his car that won the Daytona 500.

Buddy Baker insists that Ryan is a great guy entrenched with some great values. I'll take Buddy's word on that.
