Question

It's official. Newman is out at Penske. Is it inevitable he will go with T. Stewart?

Answer 1

I think he will either go to Tony's new team or RCRs 4th car. I have thought about it quite a bit and it just seems to make more sense if Newman was to go to RCR, Truex to Tony's team, and Mears to the #12 for Penske. But who knows, I don't think it will be long before it's announced.

Answer 2

I would say so. Both are from Indiana, and it would be a viable candidate.

Answer 3

Yes, he will end up with Stewart/Haas Racing next year.

Answer 4

There both from Indiana, good friends off the track and if Stewart can convince Ryan he get what he's missing  from Penske I say it's in done deal.. Just hard to imagine Ryan in a Chevy

Answer 5

yes it was in the weekly NASCAR newsletter PACE LAP and the are really good friends

Answer 6

I think he should go with Tony. RCR is having enough trouble with 3 teams...it has taken years for them to become competive again. I think a 4th car would be a huge burden and take away from the success that RCR is now seeing. I think it is crazy to have 4 teams anyways. With Tony  Ryan will have a place to grow and since they are both Indy boys they have a certain passion in common and I think it will be easier for them to bond and build a good team. I also think Martin Truex would do well with Tony too.

Answer 7

I bet he will go with Stewart Haas

Answer 8

I think it is as good as on paper already, especially with this official announcement and the rumors this past week of him possible going to Stewart Haas Racing.  This would definitely become my new favorite team in NASCAR!!

If he doesn't, I will be surprised seeing how he and Tony are friends and been racing against each other about the same amount of time in NASCAR.  They also know each other from their time in USAC series as well.  Don't quote me on that but think I heard it somewhere.  Ryan would be a nice fit for the 2nd car on Tony's team.

Answer 9

He said he has three opportunities he is looking at but my bet is on Stewart Haas.

Answer 10

According to rumors, yes, but only Ryan and Tony really know.

Answer 11

Thats the most probable outcome.

Answer 12

Just like many of the others have said, Tony and Ryan are friends, and from the same state, Indiana. Here's another thing, the announcement of the logistics of Stewart Haas, like the driver, will be made at the Brickyard, see a connection yet?

Answer 13

He will go with Tony and they will be great together!!!!

Answer 14

I hope so! Newman and Stewart together would be awesome!

Answer 15

Anything could happen right now if  i was him id talk to Joe Gibbs for the # 20 or Rcr for the #33
