Busch and Gilliland could stay with Gibbs

UPDATE A high-ranking source has confirmed Kyle Busch is off the market. The source would not confirm when the extension was signed, but has knowledge of one that ties him to both Gibbs and M&M's through 2011. Sources at Joe Gibbs Racing could not be reached for comment by press time, but it appears that they have addressed the top priority on their Christmas wish list by stabilizing Busch's contract and by rebuilding the #18 Toyota this off-season. Busch can now focus on establishing a positive relationship with crew chief Dave Rogers and launching himself back into Chase contention — although a one-year extension isn't exactly the type of deal that screams long-term association.

11/24/09 We are hearing that Kyle Busch is working on a contract extension with J.D. Gibbs team. David Gilliland could also return from his part-time role with the team to run with JGR in a fourth car, when they have opportunity and funding to run one. Gilliland also piloted for Phoenix Racing this year and is getting a look there as well, since they have funding for that car.
