Definitly going to be buying that Shirt!! Santos is a great shoe, execpt a couple wins from him this season!!

[mattphoto]

This will be a great combination for the tour

[Goldy]

This means I can get that Santos shirt I've been wanting for years..

Best of luck to Bobby and the 4 team.. I think it's great to have him in a mod - esp this one..

Wasn't Santos slated to drive another modified this year at select races? What happens with that car now?

"The Mystic Missile is his primary car, period," Garbarino said. "We have priority over anything he does."
Think that says it all.... The other was only for a few races....
This is a championship he is going for....

That along with the USAC and NEMA deals were what Garbarino was speaking of I'd think.
Rudolph may now get more time in the Heinke -Baldwin car.

[MOD11RACER]

Eric Rudolph was full time right out of the box for 2010 in the HBR Modified. Rudolph was already slated to drive the first HBR Team Modified for the full 2010 WMT season. The Rudolph HBR Modified is the primary entry for the team.

Bobby Santos III was to share a second HBR Team Modified entry with Kasey Kahne for the 2010 WMT season. Santos for 5 races and Kahne for 2 races (NH and Bristol).

With Santos going to the V4 Team full time it will leave an open seat in the second HBR Modified for 5 events. Lets hope HBR fills the seat for those 5 races with another driver.

Maybe Matt Hirschman gets a look.

Great news and a good combination I think. We will soon find out.

I'm just thrilled that the Garbarino V4 will still be part of the Tour...all is right with the world again!

[SUfan]

I am told that she wants to focus on the Nationwide deal, but if Danica were in the Baldwin car it would sure add some viewers for the Modifieds in June at Loudon.

[Bostonian]

This is awesome news. I am really happy for Bobby and his family. If he can have the same success with this team as he has had with his families USAC team, it could make for a great season.

It's about time bobby got a good ride.......Good luck Bobby.....

[CynthiaTork]

Fastest in practice. Fastest in qualifying. Leads the most laps and wins the Icebreaker. I guess this proves Bobby's the real deal. And to "J" who post on Shawn Courchesne's blog....time for you to hush up
