All Four Petty Cars

The 83 was in the top ten pack most of the day, he had a good car, the 9 wasn't as strong, pretty obvious.
 
Again you are assuming, you don't know the whole story, could be Kasey had a ligitimate gripe with the parts issue, we will never know and all we can do is speculate. One thing is for certain though, the RPM people certainly ran a poorly organized program this year. They were competitive at times, still are some what , but if they really wanted Kasey to run the rest of the season with them, they would of kept him happy.

So, would you agree that both of us are posting without all the information?
 
4%

R Petty should try and get his 4% and run with it...........might be 4% of 0.00
 
I've heard reports of Richard wanting to run his own team with just the 43 with AJ and Best Buy on board. Suits me.
 
From SNR - Sirius Speedway.....

Evernham to help Petty with RPM: Richard Petty Motorsports minority owner Ray Evernham confirmed today that Petty is assembling the financing necessary to bid for control of the troubled team, and said he will do whatever he can to ensure the success of that venture. Evernham told Sirius NASCAR Radio's Sirius Speedway with Dave Moody, "I'm going to do everything I can to help (Richard). The situation surrounding that team lately has been a... legal and financial nightmare. I don't have an interest in owning a piece of the team anymore, but if it comes down to helping Richard bridge a financial gap for the time being, I would absolutely do what it took to help him achieve his goal."
Evernham expressed confidence that Petty will be able to field a full roster of four cars in the remaining races of the 2010 season. "(Richard) has a lot of people behind him," said Evernham. "He is doing the right thing for racing and doing his best to keep a lot of people employed." Despite still owning a minority stake in the team, Evernham said, "I don't get communication from George Gillett. I haven't spoken to him in months. All I know is that there are good things happening from the Richard Petty side of things. The #43 and Richard Petty need to be in NASCAR, both now and in the future. There are lots of people -- including me and in addition to me  who want to see him succeed."
One of the team's drivers, Stanley Tools Ford driver Elliott Sadler, said news of Petty's involvement has helped calm fears among team employees about the future of the company. "I think people were more scared at Martinsville than they are now," said Sadler. "Richard Petty has gotten a lot more involved in the last couple of weeks and that has put people at ease. I'm confident that we're going to be here for the remainder of the season. Richard Petty deserves to be part of this sport. He's a good guy, and he's lots of fun to race for. It wouldn't seem right to be at the racetrack without seeing that cowboy hat and sunglasses."
 
I knew Ray would step up, hopefully next year he will be back on top of the Pit Box as crew chief for the 43.
 
i hope richard does find a way to stay in the sport and run at least 2 cars, 4 would be great. i also hope if he does find a way that he has no part in running the business. he might find more people to back him if they knew that. great driver, lousy car owner. <g>
 
At this point they would be better with 3 cars, the #43, #9, and #19. IMO that would be the strongest stable they could field, hopefully this can happen, I'd hate to see Richard leave the sport.
