His father always loved Rick Hendrick and had great admiration for him. With Junior saw it may be in a car with points, he assured that he is in every race next year. You'll never have the risk of problems if it rains or if you have an engine failure that can keep you out of the race. I think he might have done well at Richard Childress next season, but there was a problem - it would not have had the lead in the points of the 2008 season, said Rusty Wallace, ESPN analyst.

It will make the change for himself, take a race car well and it will do the job. They have proven winners and proven champions at Hendrick. The combination he had not worked, and This is not disrespect anyone. If I were him I would like to show, not even took my helmet and just ask "what car do you I want to get in? If I had implemented a change and made it so far, I think I'd make a big change. "
