DAVID GRIFFIN/NASCAR SCENE /
CONCORD, N.C. - Bill Elliott is still trying to decide on his future.
Elliott, who failed to qualify in Team Red Bull's NASCAR Nextel Cup debut Thursday at Lowe's Motor Speedway, will run two more events for the team that will be part of Toyota's debut in 2007.
Elliott is considered one of the candidates for that job.
"Right now, we're just doing three races and we're going to figure out where it is going to go from there," Elliott said Thursday following his qualifying attempt but before learning he had missed the race.
A full-time schedule for Elliott, who last ran all of the Cup races in 2003, is still an option, he said.
"We'll wait and see," Elliott said. "It depends on my options."
Elliott has driven four races for Michael Waltrip Racing and has two left with Team Red Bull as well as one with MWR.
"Pretty much the same program with different guys," Elliott said about comparing Team Red Bull with MWR. "These guys are probably a little bit greener than Michael's guys because of [crew chief] Larry Carter. All it is is a learning curve."
