Chevy hopes to get Stewart back in Cup: One of the top executives in the General Motors racing operation said the automaker will attempt to sign Tony Stewart to a contract with another Chevrolet team after his current deal with Joe Gibbs Racing expires. “We’d be interested in Tony staying with Chevy,” Brent Dewar, GM North America vice president of sales, service and parts, said Friday at Richmond International Raceway. “Most fans don’t realize that the drivers sign with the teams, and we all respect that. I understand he’s through 2009 currently with Gibbs. We’d love for him to continue with Chevrolet down the road. … “We’ve had a great relationship with Tony.” Dewar also said Chevrolet will continue to support Stewart’s hobby—sprint-car racing—despite his defection to Toyota next year along with the rest of the Gibbs drivers. “We’ve just got to sit down and see if it makes sense for all parties,” Dewar said. “We are starting to work with him and develop … he’s passionate about sprint cars, so we can see some avenues.” Stewart said during last week’s Toyota press conference that he is planning an aggressive round of contract negotiations with his team.(Ford Racing)(9-8-2007) |

well you would think it would be better to have the entire JGR team back in Chevy's rather than try to get 1 Driver to switch from the only cup team he has ever been with. I knew the answer. It just makes more sence to go after 3 cars with 3 great drivers then 1 great driver. |

Well they can't do anything untill the contract is up with toyota. I don't foresee Tony leaving Gibbs unless the move to toyota doesn't pan out but I think it will. I think Tony will stay at JGR for the rest of his career but at the same time I wouldn't be suprised if he did eventually move to a different team. |
