I knew that would happen when Sorenson was leaving. Hopefully the whole team can get some good cars next year and not just the #9.

Remind me again how many people Best Buy laid off and how many of their workers had their hours reduced this year?

Looks like Sadler is running out of sponsors.

I'm happy that Sorenson is gone. I never understood why he got that ride in the first place.

I didnt know weather to make a new thread or not I will post this here since it has to do with Allmendinger.

Allmendinger charged with DWI: For the second time in a week a NASCAR driver is in trouble with the law. A.J. Allmendinger, driver of the #44 car, was arrested for drunk driving, Mooresville police say. Allmendinger was pulled over around 1:30 a.m. Thursday along Highway 150. According to police, Allmendinger blew a .08, which is the legal limit in North Carolina. Last week Mooresville police say alcohol was a factor in an accident involving NASCAR driver and team owner Michael Waltrip. Officers investigating the accident suspected Waltrip was drinking, but when he was given a field sobriety test, he registered a .06. In North Carolina the legal limit is .08.(News Observer)(10-29-2009)

Wonder if this will change Best Buy's Mind??

Best Buy moving to the #43? Team officials familiar with RPM's personnel moves tell The Associated Press that sponsor Best Buy will move from Sadler's car next season to Petty's famed No. 43 with AJ Allmendinger as the driver. The officials spoke on the condition of anonymity because the changes have yet to be announced. Stanley Tools will become the sole primary sponsor for Sadler. Both Best Buy and Stanley had shared Sadler's car this season.(Associated Press)(10-28-2009)
