Don't forget about Joey Logano. There are some really good drivers at JGR, and Tony is getting old, and hairy. He wants to race long enough to live the life style he has become acustom to. Don't get me wrong Smoke is a great driver but do you think he has any championships left in him? And Zippy will not leave JGR. I think he will leave, why not… Don’t forget about Joey Logano.

I think that is great for Mark! Since his son gave up racing and is concentrating on education Mark has that bug and frankly I think he called it quits too soon since DJ and others raced past 50. Fisha I still couldn't see Smoke at HMS because he is not like Junior who needs better equipment to win--or as we may see with Mark. Everyone wants HMS equipment and Smoke can have that with his own team at Haas. I don't think he's happy in a Toyota and as Howie pointed out on another subject Chevy has pressured him to return because of his sprint and USAC teams for one. Smoke is a big commodity for Chevy and I bet every time they see that commercial for Toyota they get nauseous. The rumors are Mark is returning to drive full time in the #5.

I bet it'll happen. But it won't happen until 2010, though. Nobody thought Jr. would go to Hendrick, either…but we all know what the outcome was there. I bet it’ll happen.

There are some he genuinely calls friends, Matt Yocum for example. I don't think it would be good for Tony to go to HMS anyway he would not fit that image of clean cut, shirt tucked in etc. He would be MISERABLE. Yes love the Tony the Tiger but he can take Kellogg's to his own team. I believe his own team is best because he won't have to kiss anyone's rear end and he would have to do so at HMS. That is not the Tony I know. He's just toying with us all like a cat with its' prey. That's my Smoke! GO SMOKE GO! Proud to be a Hoosier just like you!

"Tony shouldn't go to the 5. It would be a "I want to be #1" fight between the 4 drivers. HMS would have the best 4 drivers and the top 4 fan favorites, it wouldn't work. The effect would work in reverse of what everyone would think. HMS would run worse and the team's wouldn't work together." Also Sushstewart20, he can keep the #20 and Home Depot, If he stays.... l0l 20 is a JGR Number and the only reason HD is with JGR is because of The teams relationship with the RedSkins.

All drivers and owners all openly skirt the issues and tapdance around questions. For Tony to come out and straight up say he's interested in the 5 car when he hasn't openly said he wants out of JGR tells me this is smoke and mirrors. Some of you fall for this crap...puh-lease.

Just one of my pet peeves, you have a contract to race for 'X' team till 'X' year, so unless they fire you you should be racing for that team till your contract runs out with them.
