it would make no sense for him to compete his Honda against his sponsor. I'm sure GM would love that.

there was a post awhile back that he had sponsorship for the hb to run 5 races this year with an unnamed driver. i would not sell it either, you never know when GM will pull the plug, take their football and go home. They had hoped this would generate sales for the Cobalt but sales are lackluster at best. I think what they are doing with the Kindles is very smart. Keeping the car real and obtainable for the average joe to afford.

personally, i would like to see the kindle's campain something with alittle more power, not just an average street car. but 12's is pretty damn good with what they got. that is a huge car.

I asked him if he'd sell his Xtrac trans off the Civic a while back but he said that they were leaving the car together and that someone else would be driving it. Again, that was a long time ago so things probably changed..?
