Cory can pretty much perservere (sp?) through any situation, he managed to bring sponsors to Henkelman/Baca, the Gwynns and the Carriers. If Griffin does fold things up, Cory will find a way to keep racing...it`s what he does!

Re: More silly season stuff

Was it Mr. Griffin that was involved in another TF sponsorship "situation" earlier this year? Seem to remember his name for some reason.
Feel really bad for Cory, he deserves better than this.

Unless Mr. Jannard would like to return to our site to refute this, I believe the Oakley FC just might already have a driver for 2008.

Jim I am not saying you are wrong, but why would this persons current sponsor let them sign with someone else considering the amount of PR this person is receiving and has received in the past for the sponsor? It just does not make any sense to me.

#1 I hope this deal does not go through.
#2 If it does. I hope Cory can grab (sponsors and crew) what he can and run like hell.

If what he's alluding to comes to fruition, it will actually be one of the best possible sponsorship marriages I've ever seen in the sport!

I agree with you that it could be a great marriage between driver and sponsor. How do you feel about the legacy of the current sponsor and how long they have been a supporter of that team? I know if I was in that sponsors shoes I would not let them go and I know that sponsor has deeper pockets then Oakley.

Re: More silly season stuff

This reminds me of the debacle that Scott Weis and the Barretts had to go through during the offseason. Hope it turns out better.
