Mears' Future Set.
By Mark Young
Rick Hendrick didn't waste any time in finding a driver to replace Brian Vickers in the 25 car next year. This afternoon he announced that Casey Mears will pilot his 4th car through 2009. This is actually no big surprise to me as Casey, though never winning a stock car race, is very talented and sponsor friendly. So now the speculation that Mears to Yates with Havoline and driving the 28 are squashed, who is the leading candidate for the 88? Is Vickers still going to Toyota as rumored? Give me your thoughts on what this does to a very early Silly Season......does it clear things up or make it clear as mud?

I'll bring up a name I haven't seen anyone mentioning -- Johnny Sauter.
It seems to me that he's settled down a good bit over the last couple years and might just be worthy of a second chance at a good Cup ride.

Ward Burton to the 88. Vickers to Red Bull.
