Logano to drive Joe Gibbs Racing No. 20 Cup entry in 2009

Joe Gibbs Racing officials confirmed today that 18-year-old Joey Logano will drive the team's No. 20 in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series beginning next season.
Logano has signed a multiyear contract with the team. While JGR officials would not disclose the length of that agreement, President J.D. Gibbs did say it was probably longer than the normal driver contract.
"It's a dream come true," Logano said.
He will compete in at least two Cup races this season, attempting to make the field for the races at Richmond and Atlanta in the team's No. 02 Toyota. He will also compete in the ARCA race at Talladega Superspeedway in order to be eligible for the Daytona 500.
While the driver admits he has a lot to learn, especially about driving in NASCAR's elite series, he'll be aided by the veteran leadership of two-time Cup championship crew chief Greg Zipadelli.
Logano began racing for the organization in the Nationwide Series earlier this season. He has made 10 starts in the series, winning in his third outing and earning seven top-10 finishes and three top-fives.
Logano will replace two-time Cup champion Tony Stewart, who is leaving at season's end to join the newly formed Stewart-Haas Racing team. Logano will work with Stewart's former crew chief, Zipadelli, and the team will continue to be sponsored by The Home Depot.
"For myself and the rest of the guys, we're extremely excited to be with Home Depot for a number of years to come and Joey for a number of years to come … We've had a great 10 years, we've got some pretty good stats to set our goals at right now, and we'll use that for our motivating tools in the future," Zipadelli said.
"… It's a burst of energy for myself and everybody in this team, and we're looking forward to the future."
Zipadelli has been with Stewart since they debuted together and can help Logano as he transitions into the top level of NASCAR competition. Logano has been with the organization as a development driver since he was 15 and has been testing Cup cars this season, sometimes with Zipadelli on hand to work with him.
"I think what we've got here is a seasoned veteran … He is the crew chief and coach, is the way I look at it, of this team," team owner Joe Gibbs said.
The organization says it never seriously considered any other driver to fill the void left by Stewart. Although Logano is new to NASCAR and is young in terms of age, he's a driver with the proven ability to win and to adapt to different cars and different series quickly.
Team President J.D. Gibbs worked to slowly bring the driver along and didn't plan to put him into the Cup ranks until Logano was ready. But after the driver tested with the veterans and after listening to the assessments of Zipadelli and Jimmy Makar, senior vice president of racing operations, Gibbs said he knew that Logano could handle the transition.
"It was probably three years ago when we went to Kansas and did an ARCA test, you could see right then he was very consistent," Zipadelli said of Logano. "He hit his marks and ran the same lap times with the car that he had. I think the biggest thing, he's very open minded. He's not afraid to move around. He'll take what he has and do the best with it. In what we've done so far, it's been a lot of fun."
The driver himself seems to welcome all of the aspects of Cup racing that he will face and has, to date, thrived in the spotlight he immediately captured in his Nationwide debut earlier this season.
"I'm all about the pressure – I'm cool with pressure. I'm moving up to this car now. It's more pressure, but I can handle it. … It's cool to even have your name brought up [for this job] and for all of it to happen," he said. "It's going to be really exciting."

Aug 25, 2008 at 2:08 PMI say a full season in Nationwide first. He says he can handle the pressure, he's been racing since he was 6. Racing is one thing, the sponsor obligations and the personal appearances that go with a Cup driver can be exhausting. Yes, he's only 18 but time will tell. Look at KB, your competition has arrived, the next Wild Thing, or as the media has already dubbed him "Sliced Bread" and Superstar. He will be under a lot of pressure to perform well and succeed.

Aug 25, 2008 at 2:23 PMI like the guy, and I am sure he has loads of talent. I must agree that he should drive maybe a couple of full seasons in Nationwide. JGR should have given someone like Mike Wallace a seat in this ride. He is a fine racer, just needs fine equipment. There are several others who are great but never had a chance in great equipment. JG better be glad they don't trade "aged" coaches in for 18 yr olds. They've hyped this guy up too much. I hope he can stand the pressure.

But he would be better with more seat/track time, as well as exposure with a year in Nationwide, like Kesolowski

Aug 25, 2008 at 11:06 PMIs there any truth to the rumor that Joey is spending all his off days huddled with veterans Tony Stewart, Denny Hamlin & Kyle Busch so he can learn all of JGR's Fine Whines... Like the classic one where Tubby Tony wrecks drivers week after week, then has the audacity to disparage other drivers' abilities? Or the one where Dashing Denny whines that his ENTIRE team should not be allowed in the Chase because HE had a couple of sub-par performances? Or Catty Kyle's extremely complicated combination "PHYSICAL/VERBAL" whine where he dangerously rams into Carl Edwards' car AFTER the race and then complains because he "only" finished second-- even though Edwards clearly had the faster car at the end of the race? Gee, when you discuss Joey's lack of CUP qualifications in WHINY TERMS-- the kid REALLY does have a LOT to learn before he can become another "classy" JGR driver!

Aug 27, 2008 at 1:17 AMCup rookies are getting younger and younger all the time. Clearasil and Stridex might want to look into sponsoring a few races. I see that under the new format for the Budweiser Shootout, Joey Logano is eligible to race by default. Doesn't he need to be accompanied by a parent if driving in a race sponsored by a beer company? What happens when someone that young wins, they can't spray him with beer, that would be contributing or at the very least minor consumption. Might have to adopt Indy's milk tradition. Hey Nascar, can the boys have a few cookies with that?

Aug 27, 2008 at 1:38 AMIf you put talented drivers in good cars you get good results. 18 year olds in other pro sports have handled the pressure and become superstars. Why not Logano. It is possible that he won't become a superstar but it's also possible he will. I plan to sit back and enjoy the beginning of what might be a great career.

Aug 28, 2008 at 12:48 PM#23, oops..my bad.. 'In addition to his racing seat business, Randy is also a part time co-host of The Driver's Seat with John Kernan on Sirius Satellite Radio's NASCAR channel 128. He also did Television Commentary for the ORP and Montreal Busch Series Races'..... However, IMHO, he did not give Joey the nickname in this capacity. Joey brought the nickname with him to NASCAR. And yes the Speed commentators can definitely run things into the ground.

Aug 31, 2008 at 8:01 AMIt seems i have the same views as everyone who's posted be for me, but so i'll just inter laye my opinion. First of all i'm new to the Circle track sport. but no noob to the autmotive world as i have competed, and own me own automotive industry company. Lagano, has increditable amounts of talent which we all seem to reconize, but one thing is true the move to the cupseries would be suicide. I know he's a strong contendor and can hold his own in the field, but he's still wet behind the ears and needs atlest a part-time role in the sprint/nationwide seat.
