I am hearing Jack Roush is taking the unsponsored # 6 Ford to Daytona with Ricky Stenhouse driving it. Oh Boy ! We are going to have a really fun Daytona 500. Hopefully, David Ragan comes up with a Ford ride.

 

Roush will most likely find a sponsor for that one race. Daytona 500 is too big of a race and Ricky will drive it for sure, so I'm pretty sure Roush will take any sponsorship.

Roush plans to expand back to a four-car team: Team owner Jack Roush said despite the "economic pressures" that forced his organization to shrink from four to three Cup teams this season, he is looking to expand back to a quartet when possible. "The plan is to go back to that four-car stable ... yes," Roush said. "In the meantime, we've been able to reposition personnel and resources within the organization because of the downsizing that I think will make us very strong." Roush also confirmed that his team will run Ricky Stenhouse Jr. for the full Nationwide Series schedule this season and is still working on sponsorship to run Trevor Bayne for a complete campaign.(Motor Racing Network)(1-25-2012)
