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."

We will see - Menard is at RCR he has long ties with RCR and Menard and i think when Robby started this team he was running Menard motors --blowing up every race then he went to DEI motors --Im glad hes back to Chevy the off road stuff has always been Chevy

I hope that he pays for his motors with SPEED ENERGY, which in turn gets sold at Menards stores. Then its just a win/win.

plus, EGR makes sense for a possible indy alliance as well, with Ganassi

This would have to be good news, one way or another. Now one has to wonder where the sponsorship will come from. Polaris stuck with him, I guess that's something. (at least two races worth of something)

John Menard has been a great supporter of all that is RG for years. I don't think it to be coincedence that John/Paul Menard are moving to RCR, & now the rumors are RGM will go to Chevy. Hmmmm. Can't wait to see the 2011 Polaris/Menards Chevys.

As a Robby fan, it's always "what's next?" Makes it interesting, to say the least. ; )

Robby needs to sell Speed Energy at Menard stores.

Do you have a Menards near you? Might be the first retailer to have Speed Energy.
