Roush team to stay 5 cars

In this Hot News item we report NASCAR's new rules with regard to how many cars any given team can race in NASCAR. But that doesn't apply to Roush Racing we guess.

Roush officials were told in a recent private meeting with NASCAR that a "grandfather clause" would be included to allow them to keep their five teams at least through the 2009 season. All of their current contracts with sponsors and drivers at least run through then, but what happens when those deals expire remains somewhat murky. ESPN.com/AP
