Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Rick Hendrick: Parting Ways or Making Plays?

[6 Shooter]

The recent re-acquisition of Landon Cassill by JR Motorsports, on the surface, has all the earmarks of filling a driver void.

Cassill, 2008 Nationwide Rookie of the Year, was hired to run four races, starting at Phoenix, in the No. 7 GoDaddy.com Chevrolet.

While this may look like the normal trappings of a simplistic multiple race deal, it’s what is hidden below the surface that demands investigation.

Yeah both Danica and Junior are doing so well in their respective series they'd be a powerhouse cup team!

Keep in mind that right now Jr. is in the chase .Jr.is also has the highest income of any driver .Under the right circumstances Danica could be second .NASCAR is about money .

Oh yeah I forgot that it's not about performance anymore but if they don't get it done on the track the money will dry up. There's a lot of laps to be completed before we can safely say that Jr's in the chase. He's up in points right now but it's not over!

Jr should ask her out! Doesn't really make any difference that she's married. Then they could make popular little race babies!
