Juan Pablo Montoya to NASCAR

[Rosko]

I know we don't often discuss pro road racing here, but this news is just too shocking not to discuss. If you follow F1, you know that Juan Pablo Montoya has lost his seat at McLaren next year. The kicker - he's headed to NASCAR Nextel Cup where he will drive for Chip Ganassi Racing!

An unexpected result of this? Hardcore road racing fans (myself included) might actually watch a NASCAR race. :lol:

um does this mean Jeff Gordan might not win all the road courses now? ive been 1 foot from JPM we eat at the same resturant the night before the USGP. Nick Heidfeld eats there every year...have never not seen him in there.

This is awesome...he can run into his teammate in the those cars and not knock himself and his teamate out of the race.

Pole Position, what restaraunt? I went to indy this year for the first time and kinda felt my way around.
