Looks like it may get busy, so I figured I would make a thread for it all.

Kurt has 'more than 3' offers for 2013, and one appears to be a second car at furniture Row. Regan Smith thinks he's out of FR after this year. RPM hasn't signed their drivers yet, and you have to wonder about MWR and that 55 car next year.

Regan Smith just never caught on. He almost won Talladega in 2008, then won Darlington in 2011, but he's way off this year. Too bad, because he seems like a nice guy.
 
I think Kurt ends up at RCR. RC was on NASCAR Radio talking up the older shrub pretty good the other day.

I think he would be a good, and VERY interesting fit. I hope Kurt learned a life lesson thru all of this. But RCR will need to step up their program to keep Kurt happy.

I've been saying that weeks and hope it happens. I don't think a guy like Kurt can help an organization like Furniture Row. They're still building and IMO they got a pretty good driver for where they're at and where they want to be. Kurt would be an awesome fit at RCR and think he can step up their program. Furniture Row won't see much improvement till a second car is ran. With the limited track time these teams get, a one car team doesn't learn a whole lot very quick.
 
I don't see how FR will ever get much better being so far away from the center of it all. It will probably be RPM or RCR so he can continue his rehab towards an SHR ride.
 
Kurt had his time in the limelight and pizzed it away. I couldn't care less if he ends up in a rubber room some where.
 
MWR: Mark's under a two year contract -- he and Vickers will share that ride while Vickers runs Nationwide full-time for JGR.
RCR: Anyone who races there, aside from Paul Menard whose ride is bought for life, knows they're merely keeping the seat warm for Austin and Ty. Even Harvick has to know he'll be in the unemployment line the second Ty's ready for Cup. But I can see Kurt replacing Burton (who also needs to retire).

There are just way too many good drivers without rides and too many crappy drivers like Logano who have rides secured.
 
Bush at Childress might be good for Bush. Bush acts up, Richard takes him hunting to cool off and "accidently" shoots him in the azz. He'll learn.
