He will just leave IRL, and go to Nascar, since Stremme won't be there in the coors lite #40, Dario can also bring his sponsor canadian club with him to Chip G's team, it would have been hard for him to bring canadian club to RCR with Jack Daniels there on Bowyers car. I'm sure Dario will do great in Nascar,I doubt Ashley will have to put up with those terrible crashes he has had this yr in IRL when he gets to Nascar.

Yes and No.
Franchitti will retire (or leave) IRL but ESPN reports that he will take over the NASCAR Nextel Cup ride that is currently occupied by David Stremme (the 40 car). Also, Coors is leaving the team so they'll need to find new sponsorship. Franchitti is not retiring from racing altogether, though.

He's most definitely been signed to drive the #40 in Nascar Nextel Cup racing next year, whether he retires from IRL is up in the air, but he will not run the complete season in IRL if he does continue to race there.

IRL is slowly dying so might as well jump ship now!
They have some great events and great finishes but half of the field shouldn't be out there with the Penske, Ganassi and AGR cars!
IRL and Champ car two totally irrelevent series in motorsports! The sponsor or lack there of say this not just my opinion!

It's a done deal, he is moving up to Nascar.
It will be great to have Ashley in the Nascar pits!!!!

Maybe from the IRL, but probably not from racing. But then if it were me I would do what Ashley said.

I thought I heard yesterday that he was coming to NASCAR next season. Could that be possible?
