The economics of fielding a Cup car have changed quite a bit since then.

4 cars is actually cheaper than 3, apparently. So I wonder if 5 cars would be cheaper than 4 (21 car)

No, 4 cars are NOT cheaper than 3. There is SOME equipment that carries over that can be used by multiple teams which makes adding an additional team much cheaper than starting a team from scratch. But even with all of the existing infrastructure in place for Penske to add a 4th team means additional haulers, highly paid crew chief, car chief, engineers and pit crew. Charter flights to and from the race track etc.

Or they could strike up a partnership with FRM, or Go Fas to put him there until something changes.

Go FAS makes sense. Then you'd have 2, 12, 22, and 32

If so, it would probably be the 02. There was already a 02 car the years they ran the 06 IIRC
