UPS to go with Roush Fenway
Roush Fenway Racing is taking delivery of the much-coveted UPS sponsorship. UPS has reached a multiyear agreement with Roush to sponsor the team's No. 6 Ford driven by David Ragan beginning with the 2009 season, The Charlotte Observer and ThatsRacin.com have learned. A formal announcement of the move is expected within the next two weeks, sources said Sunday. UPS also considered sponsoring a car with Stewart-Hass Racing and briefly considered sponsoring NASCAR's Truck series, NASCAR officials had previously acknowledged.

Well that's good. Now I can start using UPS again since I won't see their sponsorship money go to a foriegn competitor.

Now if we could get NAPA and Home Depot to a North American car rather than a so called Japanese car made here with the profits going to Japan.
I can start going to those places as well. I really thought Home Depoty would have gone with Stewart and back to Chev. Guess they like Japanese cars

Tough decision; Do we go with Roush, who is on the top of their game or go with Stewart-Hass, who is just starting up.

JK, I think Stewart at this point is a gamble one that UPS won't take.
I do think Stewart will do well.

At least UPS will be on a competitive car. David Ragan has alot of talent.

Agreed RCR, Ragan is a good driver and will do UPS some justice. At least they aren't on that scrub Reutimans car anymore....they had enough driving in the rear with DJ.

Not to change the subject too much, but I am looking for a potential driver change myself and was wondering if you all though David Ragan would be a good choice? I am trying not to be a fair-weather fan, but I am growing tired of Jr's lack of performance. I will give him unitl the end of the year, but if things do not improve I am going to need a new driver.
Suggestions.... thoughts..... I am looking for someone as aggressive as Busch, but with a personality that doesn't make me want to punch him.

I have always been forethcoming about my thoughts on Jr, so why stop now. I never put him on a pedestal, but always wanted him to succeed.

Somebody here predicted this a while ago. UPS wanted a young up and coming driver and it would probably be Ragan. Well done, whoever it was.

Marbles, I have a TON of Jr. collectibles if you know anyone that may be interested. LOL! I jumped when he sold out to Hendrick.

A true fan sticks with their driver even if he doesn't win or jumped ship!! GTE, I can't believe any real Jr. fan would think he should stay with TEI!
Ship any Jr. collectibles my way, I will stay his fan till he retires cause that is what a true fan does.

That is why I favor rooting for a team, Burton and Harvick are really who I root for and if Bowyer does well that is good too. I hope he doesn't get the 4th team running, he needs to concentrate on what he has.

If Jr. wasn't so money oriented he would have gone to childress like his daddy did.

RCR and they are a great group to root for...
I'm glad Ragan will have a good sponser next year. I think that kid will do well!!!
By the way, I was a Dale Sr. fan and when he got killed I took his son.. I do realize he will proabably never be the driver his Dad was but by cheering for him I feel I am in some one still supported Dale!!!
