There are seats open. 29 at RCR is open, though many assume Austin Dillon will come up from the Nationwide series and run the 3 in Cup. It's about time to see the 3 back on the track, IMHO. Harvick leaving provides that opportunity for the 29 to again become the 3. Will RCR do it now? That's the good question. I would think they would want a longer term commitment than a single season for someone else to fill the seat, but you never know.
The story of yesterday's race has to be the pit calls late. Those that took 4 tires never made it back up through the field. I thought the 78 or 20 would have been able to do it, but they got into each other.

Fox's deal, which was 7 years and for the first half of the season was $2.4 billion. That's a lot of money.

On Sunday, Sprint Car Hall of Famer Kramer Williamson became at least the seventh sprint car driver to die in the last 14 months.

Others that might make sense are not driving Chevys (like Elliott Sadler). Then again, it's Watkins Glen, so they could call in a ringer not otherwise committed. Said and Fellows are already in the event; Scott Pruett is not, but has always filled an extra Ganassi car in years past.
