He never used the word "retire", just that he wanted to take some time off to spend time with his family. His son is racing go-karts and dirt bikes and he wants to be involved with that. I have alot of respect for somebody who can put family infront of making money.
There are good drivers available. Look at Bill, Ricky, and Ward. Anyone wanna bet Toyota entices Bill to sign a 1 yr deal just to get his Championship provisional? They've already got DJ. Ward has said he is in talks w/ 2 domestic teams(Ganassi and Yates?) Ricky and Yates burned their bridge but there are still 3 Toyota teams that have yet to announce a driver. Red Bull #2 (rumoured to be Bill's ride), the Bill Davis 23(Lester, Skinner or Benson?) and Waltrip's 3rd team. Ganassi will probably go outside for a driver (Scott Pruett?) Lots of what ifs, next yr is going to be interesting.
I figured Ganassi would go outside for a driver but Juan Montoya? Wow, I thought he would get someone who had at least more time in a stock car than 6-7 laps.
Did you see all the stuff being thrown at the 24 car when i won that race? HATE 24 with a passion, but that was embarrassing to the NASCAR fans. Booooo to those who did that.

Actually, I think Gordon gets things thrown at him every time he wins. I've been at 2 Martinsville races where Jeffy won and fans threw beer cans at him. . .
