Robby to Chevy in 2011!

From Jayski : Robby back to Chevy: #7-Robby Gordon says the Chevy-to-Indy move is just perfect for him, and he says he'll be a part of the new Chevy Indy operation. Gordon is preparing to run next spring's Indy 500 with his own team (it will of course have to be with a Honda engine). And Gordon says he expects to make the NASCAR jump next season from Toyota back to Chevrolet. Gordon, who heads back to Mexico in a couple of days to run the Baja 1000, says he's one of five men with a shot to win the 16-hour marathon. But it hasn't been such a great year for Gordon, who last year's off-road championship but who this year has been hit with mechanical issues, most recently with his off-road transmission."

seriously doubt the team ( RG driving or not ) will run the full season. Of course things are always subject to change, but bank on a limited schedule for the #7.

Ok... I know I'm getting technical here... No full season for the #7, but what about the #07 or some other mystery number? Any plans for a second team?

Ganassi has already said they will be using the Illmore/Chevy in 2012. Maybe this is the start of a partnership.

Maybe this can be a tweet from RG next year:

ROBBY BACK TO GOVERNMENT MOTORS FOR 2011, SHOULD HAVE STAYED WITH FORD, HE ACTUALLY HAD A PRETTY SOLID YEAR IN 07 WHEN HE RAN A FORD.

John, I'm also not happy about RGM joining up with O-GM. I can't judge RG and RGM for doing what they need to do. I just hope they improve and eventually win.

I hope it is no too late. NASCAR may doing something for parity. Chevy has kicked everyones arse this year. How many teams will be with Ford and Dodge next year? What are the numbers this year? I'm sure they are demanding that NASCAR help them next year.

1 Chevrolet 249 Leader 18
2 Toyota 209 -40 12
3 Ford 158 -91 2
4 Dodge 132 -117 2


I only know I will never by a GM. My future car is a FORD or a european sedan.
