If I were an owner, I'd stay away from Newman. He's been underperforming since 2006 and he won't do any better with a new team. He's currently in a contract year and in Hendrick equipment. He should be getting at least a couple wins a year and competing for a Chase spot. Instead, he's racing David Gilliland on a weekly basis. Maybe he can get a good Nationwide ride. I don't see him getting a quality Cup ride next year though. Austin Dillon's probably going to win the Nationwide championship and get the #29 next year. Furniture Row likely won't expand. Vickers has the #55. Roush would put Trevor Bayne in the #6 before Newman if sponsorship came up. Gibbs probably won't expand to a fourth team. McMurray and Montoya will likely stay in their rides. Maybe he can drive full-time in the Nationwide series next season or something like that, because as of now I see his options being backmarker teams.
