Talk about wishful thinking!!! However, if we are dreaming, I will vote for that scenario.

1 - No chance, the team is weak anyway
2 - No chance, its where drivers go to be nuetered anyway
3 - Slim chance, but this would just be a return to 2007
4 - Good chance
5 - Little to no chance
6 - MWR is saying they're going to have a fourth team. Wouldn't be the worst thing to happen. Even odds
7 - No chance
8 - No chance, just wishful thinking by people who are fans of both Robby and Tony
9 - Little chance. But by "join forces" you mean Menard buys out a portion of RGM.
10 - Very good chance if he can't broker a quality deal soon
11 - (RGM stands alone, w/Yates power) Exact same things he had in 2007, team will continue to struggle.

DEI weak? Have you watched the last two week's races?

18th, 27th, 32, and 43rd on the track today. Mark Martin ran well last week. Mark Martin has had several good runs actually. But I don't see Smith, Menard and Truex setting the world on fire this season....

Not sure if this would play into #2 at all, but Penske did have the deal with JB for the Indy 500/Coke 600 deal earlier this year.

I don't give a shit as long as he is driving something with a sponsors decal on it

#2 if Penske gives him a car for Indy. I don't care if Robby misses the 600.
I like 12 also.

I'm with you Mike ... a Penske Indy ride is a once in a lifetime opportunity.

Must admit #8 is my favorite...Robby, Tony, and Newman on the same team..it sure would make for a lot of press..#9 sound nice too....No predictions here....1, 2 0r 3 ?? Dunno..
