#20-Tony Stewart said he is getting closer to determining what he will be doing next season and beyond. Stewart, who is signed with Joe Gibbs Racing through 2009, is entertaining offers of leaving the organization to go to another team that would include the two-time Cup champion as a team owner. “I’m getting closer, that’s the good thing,” said Stewart, who first acknowledged he was considering leaving JGR four weeks ago at Talladega. “I feel like I’m on the backside of the hill getting everything done. We’re a lot closer than we were.” If Stewart wants to race somewhere else in 2009, he would need to get released from his contract with Joe Gibbs Racing. He has admitted the issue has been discussed but denied that he has gotten the release for the team where he has spent his entire 10-year Cup carrier. “We haven’t gotten it,” Stewart said of the release. “I have not asked for it.”(SceneDaily)(5-23-2008)
 
Interesting for him to say he has not asked for a release yet. That means he isn't going anywhere or he just assumes JGR will let him go if the price is right. We'll see.
 
Didn't he already say that like 2 weeks ago?

I don't see any new info here. Not much of an update. :rolleyes:

What I find interesting is Tony is keeping it in the news. So, we can only assume he's serious, and the 'asking for early release' is forthcoming.

Or it's a way of keeping his name in print.
 
Does anybody know the exact wording of Toyota's contract? I know they let him keep all his eldora track vehicles chevy and all that, is there anywhere in the clause saying he couldnt have minority ownership in a chevy team while driving a yota?
