If Dodge were to pull out of NASCAR in 2009...?

Question

Which manufacturers do you think the following teams would align themselves with?

Gillett Evernham Motorsports

Petty Enterprises

Ganassi

Penske

Robby Gordon Motorsports

Also, could you see Nissan or Honda coming in, in place of Dodge?

All of this is just an idea... I doubt any of it happens, seriously... then again, with all the Dodge rides shuffling drivers, who knows?

Answer 1

GEM: Ford... or Chevy

Petty: Chevorlet

Ganassi: Toyota

Penske: Toyota

RGM: Back to Ford

I could see Honda coming in. If so, I wouldn't be surprised to see Penske jump over. He has a strong relationship with Honda.  

Answer 2

Interesting question. My guess:

Gillett Evernham Motorsports - Ford

Petty Enterprises - Toyota

Ganassi - Toyota

Penske - Ford

Robby Gordon Motorsports - Toyota

Answer 3

GEM- Ford or Chevy

Petty- Ford

Ganassi- Toyota

Penske- Ford (since they were Fords to start with)

RGM- Ford or Chevy (since he gets engines from GEM)

I can't see Honda coming in. I wouldn't mind seeing Buick or Pontiac come back though.

Answer 4

I don't think it will be long until Honda enters NASCAR. Toyota was first to Indy...then Honda close behind. Though Honda had been in F1, they had also dropped out, only to return after Toyota started a team.

GEM: Chevy

Petty: I would think Chevy

CGRwFS: Toyota (Honda if they would enter)

Penske: Ford (Honda if they would enter)

RGM: Ford

Answer 5

GEM-Chevy, Evernham won 4 championships as a crew chief on a Chevy

Petty-Chevy, ran GM's for a while in the 80's and 90's

Ganassi- Toyota

Penske-Ford, Penske was a Ford team until Dodge returned

Robby Gordon- Whoever'll give him engines, he's used 3 different manufactures in the last several years, Chevy(DEI engines), Ford(Yates), and Dodge(GEM)

Answer 6

Well that's a scary thought but COULD happen.

GEM----------------Chevrolet

Petty----------------Chevrolet due to their Pontiac connections

Ganassi------------Toyota

Penske.............Toyota

Robby...............Ford

as always just an opinion.....if they were smart THEY WOULD ALL CONSIDER TOYOTA.

Answer 7

Evernham - Toyota

Petty Enterprises - Ford

Ganassi - Toyota

Penske Ford

Robby Gordon Motorsports-Whom ever would promise the most technical assistance

Answer 8

First I would shoot myself, then cry:

Gillette Evernham Motorsports--Chevy

Petty Enterprises-Chevy

Ganassi--Toyota

Penske--Ford

Robby Gordon Motorsports--Ford

Honda, I would hope to never see in nascar; but we might end up seeing them make a debut in it someday, unfortunately.
