Kahne to Other Owners: In Your Dreams
Kasey Kahne confirmed that his phone has been ringing, but that the other owners are dreaming if they think he's going to leave Evernham Motorsports. He claims to have no such plans:
"I've had plenty of different teams calling to talk to me because we're running bad. I haven't talked to any other teams. I have never once talked to another team owner. It's just another reporter putting something out there with no facts. It's not true."
Kasey Kahne is signed with EMS through 2010, but is reported to have an exit clause if there is a change in ownership
Team owner Ray Evernham denies Kasey Kahne has a way out (or admits he has figured out how to work around it) and says Kasey Kahne hasn't given any indication that he wants out. Do they ever?
Evernham:
"Right now what we're trying to do is get this thing sorted out. Kasey has been one of my biggest supporters. The way he's jumped in, you'd think he was my partner. I'm really proud of him."
Hmmm. Kasey Kahne, Ray's partner? There's an idea. Maybe Evernham has been looking to the wrong people. The driver / owner thing worked out well for Jeff Gordon and Rick Hendrick ...
