The garage chatter hit high gear this weekend at Chicago: Here's a few of the Top stories and My Predictions...

Kevin Harvick is asking out of RCR...WHY? Sponsor Shell is bolting to another team (Stewart-Haas?), but who will drive the Shell car? Harvick? Keselowski? or Danica Patrick?
My prediction: Harvick & Keselowski to Stewart-Haas

Penske bought the #22 from BDR, will Penske add a new driver, replace Stremme or both?
My prediction: Justin Algaier in the 12 w/ Verizon (Blank), Paul Menard in the #22 w/ Menards

Paul Menard shopping his sponsorship looking for ride...Penske? Waltrip? RGM?
My prediction: (Penkse see above)

DEI has Bass Pro Shops and the #1 and #8 but who will drive?
My Prediction: Casey Mears or David Gilliland

RCR will scale down to 2 teams?
My prediction Bowyer & Burton stay, but possible 3rd car on limited schedule

Yates to hire new drivers?
My prediction: McMurray & Labonte stays put

JGR possibly adding a 4th team?
My Prediction: Limited schedule w/ driver TBA

Expect a Big year in 2010...as much as testing equalled out some teams, the cut back of manufacture support will put more teams on equal footing.

No need to ruin a good cut of beef with any type of condiment. Shouldn't cook it too long either.
Ganassi to Gibbs? The latest rumor is that Chip Ganassi somehow will merge his Earnhardt-Ganassi Racing team [Chevy's w/#1-Truex Jr. (leaves end of 2009) and #42-Montoya] with Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota's w/#18-Busch, #11-Hamlin, #20-Logano], possibly eliminating another owner.(SPEEDtv/Jimmy Spencer)(7-23-2009)
Dewalt leaving Matt Kenseth & Roush Racing

Martin Truex's new sponsor - let the joke begin on this one. I hadn't noticed the name of the October Martinsville race until this article.

LOL!! How ironic is that?
Oh that's bad. Remember the pink Hanes Pantyhose car (Sterling Marlin?)
Well, it looks like Jack has made his decision...

They "say" they want to keep him, but when you are told its ok to look for another job,the writing is pretty much on the wall.
Especially since Crown Royal has two years left on it's partial contract and they haven't "ruled out" moving it to Kenseth's car. Jamie back to Ganassi?
