Farmer's Insurance has signed a deal to sponsor Kasey Kahne for 22 races in 2012, 2013, and 2014. They also will sponsor the non-points races as well. Assuming Carquest & Quaker State both come back for 8 and 4 races each, like they are scheduled for this year, than Rick still needs to sell two races. I'm guessing this also shows that Danica will be switching to NASCAR full time next year so GoDaddy will focus on her in that series.

I hope he will do better in the #5 next year than Mark is this year. I don't know whether it's the equipment or crew chief, but he has been running like garbage this year.

The first year for drivers at HMS is always pretty good, see Mark and Dale's first years there. After that all bets are off in my opinion, I think Kasey is extremely talented and with better equipment under him I think he'll do well there until the #48 team starts getting to worried and pulls personnel from him.

Mark has Lance McGrew. Lance could only make Kyle Busch look average in the Busch Series.

It seems the only way you get a good finish with Lance if you luck into it. Maybe people were bashing Jr too much last year?

Perhaps. Jr admits that he was a big part of the problem, but it was pretty clear that McGrew was worse at managing Dale then Tony Eury Jr. Tony Eury Sr leaving Earnhardt's pitbox was probably the worst thing to happen to Jr's career.

A Viagra joke. Haven't heard one of those in a while. And believe me, as a man who was a devoted fan of Mark through that horrible phase, I've heard them all.

There is a point where its okay to not buy driver/sponsor hats and shirts.

I didn't say I bought his merchandise, even though I did. I was young and dumb. So, some of the jokes I got I had coming. I'm a glutton for punishment I guess.
