I keep hearing rumors that he will be RCR's 4th cup car in '09. I have no issues with Bobby and wish he could climb back up but once again I insert the age issue. He'll turn 45 in '09. That isn't old by many standards but it's tough to go up against some 35 year old ... or younger !!!

Burton's career rebounded by movin to RCR... it will probably help Bobby.

I'd be happy to see it happen. I think he is capable so only time will tell.
