Martin to Drive the 5 Car?

Ya know, for a guy who is retired, he seems pretty busy, or is that addicted?  Cause once you get a taste of speed, and you don't crap your pants doing it, it's hard to let go of!

Hendrick Motorsports released a statement saying they're going to release a statement on Friday...  huh?  [*head-desk*]
The statement (on Friday) will be announcing who is replacing Casey Mears next year in the No. 5 Chevy.

All indicators points to Mark Martin getting out from under the Teresa gloom in DEI and headed to the No. 5 car.

Further substantiating information would be that DEI announced on Tuesday that Aric Almirola will be in the No 8 DEI Chevy full time next year.  Strange timing?  Was DEI trying to take the wind out of HMS' announcement?  Eh, whatever.  It's background noise.

Wow, HMS, J Gordon, J Johnson, M Martin, D Earnhardt Jr..  Next year is going to be a Gibbs - Hendrick slug fest.  Everyone else will be fighting for 3rd on back.
