Childress Denies Reported Lawsuit Against GM

The following is a statement from Richard Childress, president and CEO of Richard Childress Racing regarding allegations that RCR has filed a lawsuit against General Motors:

“I would like to set the record straight that RCR has NOT filed a lawsuit against General Motors and I do not appreciate anyone suggesting otherwise. As is standard practice in bankruptcy proceedings, RCR has made a filing which is common among creditors in these situations. As previously stated as recently as this past weekend in Sonoma, RCR is proud to be associated with General Motors and we are working closely with them during these difficult economic times." RCR PR

So just as Dodge owes RPM a lot of money, it appears GM owes RCR and perhaps other teams money, or they would not put themselves on the creditors list. Call it a lawsuit, call it what you might, things are not well in NASCARland.
