There is an increasingly likely scenario that could see Jimmie Johnson in an arm-wrestling contest with Tony Kanaan to determine who gets the Chip Ganassi Racing No. 48 in the 106th Indianapolis 500 next May.

This is only a looming
problem because the seven-time NASCAR Cup Series champion is starting to explore the possibility of making a run at the Greatest Spectacle in Racing. Johnson is currently splitting the No. 48 with the 2004 Indy Racing League champion and 2013 Indianapolis 500 winner.
