Robby not racing at New Hampshire?

Nascar.com is reporting that Robby has decided not to run next weekend at New Hampshire because of lack of sponsorship. Robby Gordon Motorsports will be running a car with P.J. Jones only. Is this true!

I think tog said good time to start his vacation....i couldn't agree more leaving for Ocean City MD tonight til monday. So i'll sport my 4 foot long Robby Gordon Off road sticker in the back window of my silverado on the streets of OC. I started rooting for Rob when i was 12 i'm 28 now so whatever he thinks is right for the future of RGM i'm gonna support. Rob GAS ON!!! even if your sitting at home

with PJ running the 07 as much as he did as Sears Point, I can see why they didn't just park it after the first 35 or so laps....need to get PJ some seat time....good strategy. Basically PJ's pit crew was back in the garage.

Makes total sense to me. Take the weekend off Robby! Save the cash!

So PJ will be driving the 7 at Loudon, will Robby be at the track on top of the pit box? If Chandra goes into labor Jimmie can always go with Robby in the car instead of whoever he has on standby.

If not then this puts a damper on all those clips of Robby throwing the helmet. Such is life.

With Robby not racing what better why to give PJ a test session in the crap car. Testing on a nascar sanctioned track with goodyears...nice.

and if Robby is not at the track what are the chances of him logging in the chat room on race day and joining in the lively chit chat?

I am looking forward to PJ outlasting the 34, 37 & 38 cars!

This stinks, first it's all the BS between the track and the town, with threats of moving the race out next year and now this. Hey, he can stay at my place to save some money. My question is Does Chief Fiske have anything to do with this?

What would it cost to put tires and fuel in it for the whole race?
Are we talking $15k or $150k?

about closer to 15K. But he could have the crew take a break al$o. What if PJ puts it on the Pole or a top ten?

RG would strap a rocket to his butt and be there by Midnight Sat.
