Mears or Stremme to the #12

It appears to be a two-man race for Ryan Newman’s soon-to-be-vacant #12 seat at Penske Racing, with Casey Mears and David Stremme in the running. Stremme is making a strong bid for the ride, doing yeoman work as Penske Racing’s test driver this season. In fact, Stremme’s name is being linked with as many as three different Cup openings next year. Sirius NASCAR Radio's Sirius Speedway
