Question

Does anyone think Hendrick should move Chad to Mark Martin's team next year in hopes of a championship?

Answer 1

That would be a great match up. I would love to see MM win a championship. He is as hard nosed a racer as they come.  

Answer 2

I am a Mark Martin fan, but I think team-wise, that would be ridiculous. The 48 team is elite. It needs to be left that way. Mark is a good driver but what has he done to deserve any special attention from Hendrick's which could possibly hurt his team as a whole. Besides, Martin is good enough to work with any crew chief. I personally believe he made Pat Tryson better when they were at Roush together. Also, look at Roush and his habit of moving crew chiefs around. It usually causes a year or two of unrest. Champions are champions for a reason, you can't force it.

Answer 3

why? and lose the magic he has with Jimmie johnson just so mark can maybe be in the chase if they do click together..no way...maybe Eury jr can go over there but letarte and knaus stay put

Answer 4

I don't think that will ever happen....Jimmie and Chad are a team that any smart owner would not break up. Don't forget that Gustafson is the #5's crew chief....great leader and smart just needs a better driver which he will have next year. No offense to Casey Mears fans...but the results speak. I think Mark will do well next year.

Answer 5

I am sure they wont. It certainly would give Mark a great shot at the cup.

Answer 6

I think Chad and J.J. would still have a better shot.

Answer 7

Then Chad better not take the magic wand with him.

Answer 8

Chad and Jimmie split up?  No way!  I don't think that would make Chad a very happy camper.
