The "demise" of Richard Childress Racing?
*NOT from Jayski* I read this on a Nascar blog site "The demise of RCR finally coming?" The view of this is, Harvick is possibly leaving and could take sponsorship with him to SHR in 2014. As many know Jeff Burton is most likely to reitre from driving after next season, no word on what Caterpillar is doing since they are also on the same contract with Burton. This leaves 2 seats open at RCR's cup level. Many know that Childress is saving one of the cars for Austin Dillon, BUT in this case scenario, Dillon would be without a sponsor. RCR would only have 1 fully sponsored car of Paul Menard and there isn't anything saying he will stay at RCR either. Plus look at the fact ECR's engine shop will have no top team customers anymore now that EGR is moving to Hendrick engines. And as im sure many have noticed Childress's cup teams have severly lacked performance over the past few years. So if this all plays out, Childress will have a 3 car team - 2 cars possibly non sponsored fully or at all, no engine marketing/sales, Paul Menard who could certainitly take his ride elsewhere and Austin Dillon. Granted all this is off a blog i read and who knows how true this is, but if you think about it, its a situatuion that could play out with many key points that have already taken place. Opinions on this?

I haven't gotten as much information as you had in that blog. While this is true, I have watched young Austin and Ty Dillon race and they are both fantastic. They are drawing their own sponsors due to their performance. I watched the Prelude to the Dream this year and both Austin and Ty handled that venue admirably well. As for the demise of RCR, I in my opinion would state that that statement is most premature. Richard Childress came up during a time when sponsors were few and engines were shop built. ECR could easily come back into the Childress fold. I feel that the engines went to ECR out of respect for Dale Sr's widow, EGR was having financial problems at the time. Just my opinion --- I could be wrong.

Childress Racing has been one of the top teams for almost 30 years now. It seems that all major top teams meet their demise in some way, like Petty Enterprises, for example, who have won only 1 race under Richard and Kyle Petty. I would hope Childress Racing finds it's 'groove' again, but I think even Richard Childress is feeling worn out himself.

Just a stupid blog! Blogs are like "butts" everyone has one. RCR isn't going anywhere, his grandson's are coming up soon and as far as lack of performance Harvick won!
