Toyota to Cup in 2007? 8 teams? UPDATE:

Toyota will support eight Nextel Cup teams when its cars make their debuts in 2007, but none of them is likely to be from Ganassi Racing, which all along figured to be part of the Toyota contingent. Toyota Racing Development will support four Penske Racing squads and two each from Bill Davis Racing and Michael Waltrip Racing. Davis and Waltrip will be partners in 2006, then turn their attention to Toyota.(Sporting News)(10-3-2005)
UPDATE: however, as was reported in the past and reinterated today…..Walter Czarnecki, vice chairman of Penske Racing, says Penske Racing’s contract with Dodge extends beyond 2007.(10-3-2005)
