RCR to scale back to two teams?

There is speculation that Chevy team owner Richard Childress may have to cut back to a two-car operation next season, if the Shell for Kevin Harvick and Jack Daniels for Casey Mears sponsorships are not renewed. Childress says he intends to have four Cup teams again next year, but conceded sponsorship issues remain to be resolved. Childress, through the Winston-Salem law firm Womble, Carlyle, has filed legal papers over what he says is GM's non-payment of a bill of $2,538,750. Childress insists he's not suing GM over its failure to make that payment due June 15th. That bill would apparently be a scheduled quarterly payment, part of a $10 million a year Chevrolet sponsorship for Childress' four-team operation. mikemulhern.net
