Jeremy Mayfield would gladly race Chip Ganassi Racing's #41 Sprint Cup car if asked, but whether that request will come is still to be determined. "Obviously I'd love to get in the car and drive next year for sure," Mayfield said Tuesday night. "It's a great race team with a great sponsor. Mayfield said among his options for next year is possibly starting a truck team or going drag racing.

Starting a truck team?? This guy hasn't raced in two years...how can he afford that?

Doesn't Jeremy have the reputation of poisoning every team relationship he has ever had? Outing Ray Evernham and Erin Crocker may have spelled the end of his career. It's just dying in degrees. I don't think I'd want him driving for me.

Jeremy would love to be driving any kind of race car. Starting his own team might be his best option. I'm not sure there's many owners in the garage area that really want him driving for them.

Mayfield is a punk. I agree with you Rick. He is trouble.

September 24, 2008  11:07 AM ET

Can't agree more, the guy is a back stabber.

He need to be out in the parking lot at Walmart retrieving shopping baskets!

I love Mayfield. He called it like he saw it. I bet Mrs.Everham likes him. LOL

you are dead on, outing ray and erin was DEFINITELY the dagger for any hope he ever had of getting another cup ride, the only way possible now is if he starts his own team...

September 24, 2008  01:34 PM ET

Where I come from they are carts or carriages. LOL
Did the last line in that article say he raced in drag ?

September 24, 2008  02:18 PM ET

Maybe Mayfield could hook up with Steve-O and the Jacka$$ group and make some cool videos of him wrecking Buggies, Carts, Carriages, whatever into concrete walls or things on fire? Just a idea! LOL

he would fit right in with Chip and the rest of his drivers, NONE of them speak english as their first language

He went beyond outing, he sued for pay. Suing employers (unfair as it might be) dont really help you in the long run.

Probably can hire him for a song......30% of purse, etc. because he's desperate to get back into a car........
