Best Buy is gone...

Off to Carl Edwards for two races and Matt Kenseth for nine races (so you get 11 races at Roush for what it costs to run 26 races at RPM?).

You really can't blame them. They'll get 10 times more exposure on the 99 than they would on the 43. That's just life.

The good news is that it sounds like RPM will still be two cars next year regardless.

Yeah, that press release for sounded optimistic that they had something else lined up....I hope that's the case.

There is nothing that says they are paying the same amount of money with Roush that they did with RPM. Between the 99 and 17 they are on board for LESS than 1/3 of the season so I hardly think they are spending the same amount of money. It's pretty obvious that they are cutting back.

Not necessarily true - I read somewhere (trying to find it) that they only paid $6 million last year for the 43.
