quick news from around the racing world like kyle signing to JGR, etc

Kyle Busch signs with Joe Gibbs

Looks like JJ Yeley will get the shaft here as JGR is not currently looking at expanding to four teams (maybe it’s because of the pending switch to Toyota here). Kyle Busch will race the 18 and probably will be as much of an outspoken dick as Tony Stewart except Tony’s actually fun to listen to.

Maybe he can make Kyle a fun personality. Kyle Busch should listen and learn from this video of what Tony did to Jeff Gordon in 2000.. that was funny.

More Graham Rahal, all the time

Graham Rahal is getting more coverage these days as a rising star. Being from Ohio, I’d love to see him in F1 someday. He’s very consistent, even with Bourdais as a teammate. Maybe we could see him pair up with Marco Andretti at Newman-Haas Lanigan because Marco’s career is going nowhere but upside-down in the corrupt IRL (although it feels more likely that Justin Wilson may be his new teammate in 2008).

More corn for (less) people

Looks like the IRL will get a milti-year deal for the Iowa Speedway… meaning when Honda leaves the IRL for NASCAR in 2009.. (everyone knows it will happen) this contract means nothing.
