Default Dan Wheldon to NASCAR?

Thats unpossible?!

But some say it is so, he gets a few rides next year and a full ride maybe in 2008. Could this be a foot in the door for Honda into NASCAR considering the close ties Honda has had with AGR?

Just mere speculations on the latter part.

I think it would be pretty cool to have a Honda running in Nascar, but why would he downgrade to Nascar?

The motorsports journalists need something to fill their pages. It happens everytime a driver is considered hot property.

Ryan Hunter-Reay was mentioned as being the best positioned American to get into F1...all after going flag to flag winning a one mile oval race!

Danica Patrick was said to be driving some demo laps in a BAR at Indy.

Helio Castroneves, Dario Franchitti, etc. were rumoured to go to F1 after breakthrough wins/performances in Champ Car.

Adrian Fernandez and Jimmy Vasser were said to partner Villeneuve at BAR because of their close ties to Reynard.

I doubt Honda will ever go to Nascar. Theres little room for them for R&D and the development of new technologies.
