HOMESTEAD, Fla. -- No surprise, if it's up to Rick Hendrick, Jimmie Johnson will drive a Hendrick Motorsports racecar for the remainder of his career.

Hendrick said he is fully prepared to do whatever it takes to retain Johnson's services for as long as he drives professionally in the Nextel Cup Series. Money. Assets. Car dealerships. And most importantly, championship-caliber racecars.

"My goal with him is real simple -- to keep him with me for as long as he races," Hendrick said.

There's a shocker

I guess if I was in his shoes I would do the same thing.

Can't have the Wonder Twins on different teams, after all.

Yeah, really... how could he NOT want to lock this guy up for the rest of his career. Smart move by Hendrick.
