Jr., will never be as good as his dad and I think if he doesn't win some races Hendrick may let him go and IMO it would be a wise decision.
For sure they will let him go! You know Stewart is picking up a 3rd car next season right? Its going to be Keslowski, he will drive it for a year then undoubtably go to Hendrick to drive the #5 car or even the #88. It will be interesting after next season to see what Rick does...
Jr might do better as a team owner and promoter than as a driver. I actually wish he had stayed with Earnhardt Racing. He's just not the same without the red budweiser car.
I really hope Dale Jr can turn things around with Lance McGrew and slip into the Chase. But I agree he is at this point overrated. He really needs to step up soon.
I was wondering what Rick Hendrick thinks when he sees all the races that Kyle have won. Do you think Rick maybe wishes he kept Kyle?

I for one am glad Shrubber doesn't work for that wrong doer anymore!

Its too late now for Rick, on the flip side though for him, T-Shirt sales have SKYROCKETED!!
And there's like 0 chance he will make the chase. At least now all of Jr Nation won't be @ Charlotte in October
Jr is a real long shot at making the chase. Even if he starts finishing well, he is a couple hundred points back.

He did let a tremendous talent leave, but I think he knew that and has not looked back. I suspect Hendrick simply did not like Kyle, or at least his attitude. I also do not think he appreciated the number of cars Kyle was tearing up at the time either, because he was taking a lot of risky chances.
