#16-Greg Biffle's future is up in the air after the decision of sponsor Ameriquest, a retail-mortgage company, to drop out of the sport at the end of the season. Biffle's contract with car owner Jack Roush runs through the end of 2008, so Geoff Smith, the head of Roush Racing, said he wants to negotiate a new, longer term contract with Biffle, in order to get leverage to sign a new sponsor. However a possible complicating factor is NASCAR's looming limit on the number of Nextel Cup teams that any one car owner can have. In 2009, Roush will have to cut his five-team roster to four. So which of Roush's five drivers - Biffle, Matt Kenseth, Carl Edwards, Jamie McMurray, or David Ragan - will have to move? If Smith can get Biffle to sign, that could put him in the driver's seat for sponsorship with the top open man in the series.(Winston Salem Journal)
