Who will drive the #6?

[StandOnIt]

Timmy Hill has two brands in the same shop. He races a Ford and a Toyota so he is ready to fill in for either on a moments notice.

 

[racingfan7]

I could see Ragan being in the 6, not because he has upside or deserves it, but he's already ran the 500 & is eligible for the playoffs (my guess is sponsors like that) if he got a lucky plate win.

 

[Mike Crayne]

David Regan has already been hired by NASCAR to test drive the new car this year.

 

[aunty dive]

Ross Chastain’s name is in the mill.

 

[StandOnIt]

Gotta get Bob's tout in here. I don't think any of us mentioned Crafton, but he has raced in cup.

 

[Magicmiler]

Where's Ward ?

 

[racingfan7]

Can someone tell Bob that unless the 6 team decides to randomly shut down and sell their charter, why would he only "expect" them to show up.

 

[BobbyFord]

That would be a good choice.

Biffle has a win in the trucks, gets my vote.

 

[Michfan]

Yeah, I think he has a win in cup too

 

[saltysenior]

Morgan !!!

 

[Team Penske]

RF needs experience that's available and cheap. Sounds alot like AJ Allmendinger to me.

Hammer meet nail.

 

[bigspud]

Yeah, I think he has a win in cup too

oh, i must have missed that, which cup is that?

 

[Efisher131]

The Piston Cup

 

[bigspud]

The Piston Cup

Ronnie to the #6

 

[Brentford]

My choice which is solely based on who I would like to see in the car would be McMurray, followed closely by Edward's. Neither will happen, but based off of who has ties to Roush, those would be my two choices.

They are the same people who in 18 years haven't realized it's spelled Jimmie.

Timmy Hill has really proven lately that he deserves an opportunity.

He has?

Protective.

 

[Old 97]

I like the Allmendinger idea but I'd bet on Cindric or Briscoe getting the ride. You could even convince me on Menard

Seriously???
You think Penske is just going to loan out Cindric?
Kenseth has a much better chance than that!

 

[racingfan7]

I recall Austin Dillon driving an SHR car before he went full time so papaw can make things happen if Cindric and Roush is a good stop gap fit

Who is papaw?

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Who is papaw?

Richard Childress is Austin and Ty Dillon's grandfather, aka Pop-Pop and Grampy.

 

[Old 97]

Richard Childress is Austin and Ty Dillon's grandfather, aka Pop-Pop and Grampy.

Right on.
Everyone knows Pop pop.
I didn’t think he was talking about him because I have no idea how the hell Richard Childress fits into this equation.

It’s a comparison, that if Childress can stand to loan out Austin, Penske might consider loaning Cindric.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Seriously???

Kenseth has a much better chance than that!

Yes. They both race for Ford, I would think something could be worked out there. Matt Kenseth is not walking through that door

 

[RacerrecaR]

What is the sponsorship situation for the #6? Just had a thought that no Newman in the car could affect whether or not the sponsor(s) stay

 

[superchuck500]

Looks like David Ragan isn't interested.

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

Timmy Hill has really proven lately that he deserves an opportunity.

He has?

Yep. Finished 3rd in the Xfinity race where he ran up front up day. Ran well in the 500 only to be caught up in someone else’s wreck. Finished like 6th of 7th at Bristol in a Carl Long car last year, and a top 5 in his own equipment at Martinsville last year in the trucks. Due can has running good recently

 

[sdj]

My pick is obvious! Get the "Melon Man" in the 6 car!

Ross Chastain! = Melon Man, geeeeezzzzzz.

 

[*WEAVER*]

Well David Reagan is out, he's going to the flea market with Ronnie Regan, and Ragan Smith.

Jimmy Spencer
