Kurt Busch Signs Future Contract with Roush Racing

Days after signing a new long-term deal with with Penske Racing, Kurt Busch has announced that he has reached an agreement with Jack Roush, beginning at the conclusion of his next contract.
"Jack has been nothing but a gentleman to me", Busch explained at a press conference, "and I realized that this would be a great place to continue my racing career."
Busch's current contract with Roush Racing ends in 2007. His Penske contract is believed to run through 2011, meaning that Busch can return to the team in time for the London Olympics.
"Kurt is always thinking about the future, as am I", Roush said in a statement. "Its obvious that in this day in age, drivers are being signed further and further down the road. This was our best chance to sign a great driver to a long-term deal...again."
Roush has already lined up the next generation of Nascar superstars to join his Ford brigade in the coming decades.
"We have Reed Sorensen coming on board in 2015, David Reutimann in 2017, and Dale Earnhardt Jr. in 2025. I've already talked to Mark Martin, and he has confirmed that he is willing to continue driving as long as we need him to, which as of now looks like its going to be through the next decade."
In retaliation, Penske Racing, taking a page from Chip Ganassi, changed his company's name to "Roger Penske Racing Without Rusty Wallace", in an attempt to attract name talent.
