Re: will mr montoya

I don't think he will this year, but next year, yes. He's actually picking it all up pretty quick.

I think it'll be intersting to watch him on the road course with Jeff Gordon,Robby Gordon and Kurt Busch.

I agree. He is running really well at tracks he's never been at or even heard of. He rarely makes a huge mistake and the majority of the time he crashes, it is from someone else getting into him. He's the real deal alright and a breath of fresh air in the stagnant pool of sponsor spewing poster boys.

very valid point!

If it ends up that Ganassi does have the car to win it can only been good for the sport. THink Ganassi are one of the organizations that once they've got a win they'll keep winning

Re: will mr montoya

Montoya definitely has the desire to win. The ability is above average. The cars will be the question right now. He is still in a learning curve also. His win in Mexico was a little rough on the edges, but he will get better as he races the big boys.

Re: will mr montoya

I think Ganassi will come up with the cars for him. This may help get Ganassi back in the ballgame. I didn't like him when he first came to cup, but he grows on me alittle more each week.
