Just two races until the start of the Chase for the Sprint Cup and the NASCAR Silly Season rolls on. Robby Gordon Motorsports and Kevin Conway announced this week they would partner for the remaining races this season. Conway spent most of this season with Front Row Motorsports – the two parted ways two weeks ago. In other news, Hendrick Motorsports announced on Saturday Quaker State would be expanding their relationship to include four races on the #5 car with Mark Martin next season. Other sponsorship announcements with HMS are pending. And finally NASCAR announced this week the reorganization of their communications department. The sanctioning body is currently looking for a chief communications officer. This is the NASCAR week that was, August 29 to September 4, 2010.
