Kyle Petty Sees what Danica Is Really Upto.

Well Danica Patrick has finally announced that she is coming to Nascar and will be driving for JR Motorsports for a select number of races for 2010.

And while many may say this is a good thing for the sport, Kyle Petty has a few words about Ms.Patrick joining Nascar.

I for one am not happy that she is coming to Nascar.

Brad Keselowski will have two diffrent crew chiefs in 2010

Penske Racing has announced that Jay Guy and Paul Wolfe will head Brad Keselowski Sprint Cup and Nationwide Series teams Respectfully, for the 2010 season.

Roy McCauley who has lead Penske's No. 12 Sprint Cup team for the least four years, will be remain with the team, however he will no be in a leadership role within the organization.

Jay Guy, who is 36, had been the Crew Chief for Reagan Smith who drove the No 78 Chevy Impala SS for Furniture Row Racing in the Cup Series. Besides being a crew chief in the Cup Series Guy has also been a crew chief in the Nationwide and Truck Series.

"I am really excited to join Penske Racing and I'm looking forward to the opportunities that lie ahead with the No. 12 team, Over the years, the No. 12 team has had a lot of success, including winning the 2008 Daytona 500, and we certainly want to build on that tradition of winning. Brad is one of the most talented drivers in NASCAR and we will work together to develop his skills and make this team the best it can be." -- Jay Guy



Paul Wolfe, who is a former competitor on the track, will be the Crew Chief of Brad's No. 22 Dodge in the Nationwide Series. The 32 year old Wolfe had raced in the Nationwide Series and has also completed his fourth year as Crew Chief in the Series by leading the No. 11 of CJM Racing to 21st place finish in the Nationwide Series Standings.


"The chance to work with Penske Racing and a driver as skilled as Brad is a tremendous opportunity, With the team that we will have in place, we know that 2010 will be a special season for the No. 22 and we will work hard to make sure we are ready to meet the challenge." --Paul Wolfe



Brad Keselowski will be making his first full time Nascar Sprint Cup season, as well as competing in his Third full time, Fifth career season in the Nationwide Series.

"Both Jay and Paul have a lot of experience throughout all levels of motorsports competition and they each seem to get the most out of the teams and drivers that they work with, I'm really looking forward to working with Jay next season in my first full season of Cup Series competition. We are also excited to race for the Nationwide Series title with Paul and the No. 22 team in 2010." --Brad Keselowski

Finally Someone has a clear head on the Matter


Finally after all these weeks and months where writers have written how it looks like Danica Patrick will be driving in Nascar next season and how good it will be for her and the sport, i have found one writer who, even though he leaves it open that there could be a chance that she will come over; also writes about how she shouldn't.

The writer's name is Joe Menzer who writes for Nascar.Com.

Now i am a fan of Mr. Menzer, and it has nothing to do with the fact that he has written an article saying that Danica shouldn't be racing in the IRL and The Nascar Nationwide Series at the same time.

But i do think that she shouldn't be driving in two different series at the same time.

From The Goose, Congrats to Jimmie Johnson


As everyone knows by now Jimmie Johnson has won his Fourth Sprint Cup Championship, but that isn't the biggest thing. The biggest thing is that he won his four championships consecutively.

Now I'm not a big Jimmie Johnson fan, and don't like the fact that he won another championship. But i do give credit when credit is do.

So Congrats Jimmie, Chad, and the whole Lowe's Home Improvement Chevy Impala SS on winning your fourth Championship.
