Yeley hoping to get back in Series, to CGR #41?


From Jayski.com:

Yeley hopes to get back in Cup ride soon: J.J. Yeley would welcome the opportunity to return to Sprint Cup this season. He tried to get into MWR's #00 Toyota for Martinsville, but the team hired Mike Bliss. "He had a little sponsorship and he won," Yeley said. Yeley has spoken with Chip Ganassi about the #41 [Target Dodge] being vacated by Sorenson at the end of the season. It's the only fully funded car left in the Cup garage. "Chip hasn't said no," Yeley said. "My name is still on the list. It would be a great opportunity." A.J. Allmendinger's name has been linked to that seat, too. Other seats with established teams are available, but they need funding and a driver with some of it will have an edge. Yeley is working with a marketing company to bring something to the table if he doesn't land the job at Ganassi. "I've had lots of discussions with a lot of teams," Yeley said. "If you can bring a little bit of money, they can bring the rest. It puts you at the front of the line. I want to race at the highest level, I'd love to do Cup. If I can't, then I'll look at Nationwide and [Craftsman] Trucks."(Sports Illustrated)(10-15-2008)
