Even though he is leaving Roush Racing and Ford after 19 years to drive an MB2 Motorsports [Ginn Racing] Chevy part-time next season in the Nextel Cup Series, Mark Martin has asked Ford if he can continue his plans to drive Roushs #6 Ford F-150 in some Craftsman Truck Series races next year. Martin planned to drive that truck in 2007, at least until the MB2 Chevy deal came up. Fords racing boss, Dan Davis, said no decision has been made from Fords end so far. “I didnt give him (Martin) an answer yet and we havent actually decided what to do yet,” Davis said Friday. “Maybe we need to get over the initial hurt of this whole thing and try to look at it in hard, cold business terms and thats what I would really like to do and be unemotional about it. Hopefully, as a team at Ford well sit down and try to figure out what to do.”(SpeedTV.com)(10-14-2006)
