Haas CNC Racing plans to field two Cup cars in 2007

HOMESTEAD, Fla. - Haas CNC Racing team manager Bill Ingle said Sunday that the team would expand to field two full-time Nextel Cup Series cars next season. Haas currently fields the No. 66 Chevrolet with Jeff Green. Next year, the team will field the No. 70 as well, with Johnny Sauter expected to be the driver.
Sauter is rumored to be the first choice of Robert Yates Racing for its No. 88 car, but Ingle said all his conversations with Sauter lead him to believe the driver is staying. Either way, he said adding a second team is imperative.
"It's going to be difficult for everybody, but we saw the one race where we ran both cars at Charlotte in May how much both teams were better that weekend," Ingle said. "That's not saying they're going to do that everywhere we go ... but hopefully we can get them both in the show every week."
The plan is for Harold Holly to remain as Green's crew chief, with Robert "Bootie" Barker remaining with Sauter.
