Newman to drive No. 39, not No. 4 for Stewart-Haas next season

Ryan Newman won't drive the No. 4 for Stewart-Haas Racing next season after all.
Tony Stewart, who'll co-own the team and drive the group's No. 14 Chevrolets in 2009, announced on his Sirius Satellite Radio show Monday night that he is changing Newman's car number to the No. 39 for next season, a Stewart spokesperson confirmed.
The switch comes three days after Stewart formalized plans at Michigan International Speedway for Newman to compete with the No. 4.
Stewart offered two reasons for the change: The No. 39 is special to Newman because he won his first United States Auto Club midget race with the number, and Stewart wanted to leave the No. 4 available to its long-time carrier, Morgan-McClure Motorsports, should the team return to the Sprint Cup Series next year.

Aug 19, 2008 at 9:50 PMTony's actions just reaffirm what I have known all along which is that he is very respectful of the other owners and drivers in that garage. Tony is a good man and I am always gratified whenever the media acknowledges that. Tony and Ryan teamed up will be a force to be reckoned with. I look forward to the 2009 season and for cheering on the #14 and the #39. Go Stewart-Haas Racing.

Aug 19, 2008 at 10:05 PMAnd by the by, Tony Stewart will only become "classy" when he doesn't shove racing officials because he doesn't like a ruling, stops savagely and unnecessarily berating other drivers (like Carl Edwards or John Andretti or anyone else Tony might deliberately decide to run into on any given race day), quit disparaging qualified pit reporters with inane and flat out wrong criticisms and figures out how NOT to whine like a 2 Year Old for more than a week. If Tony can do ALL that for THREE YEARS or more (and that's a BIG "if") then he might be worthy to restart on the road to classy respectability. Being a great race car driver who occasionally does ONE thing right for every TWENTY wrongs does NOT make said race car driver suddenly "classy". To describe Tony Stewart as classy is to DENIGRATE every single TRULY CLASSY driver that has ever participated in the sport!
