Dale Earnhardt Jr.

[bigcountrysg]

Dale Jr. will be driving number 88 the Mt. Dew Amp energy drink car next year for Hendricks Motorsports.

I wonder if they are going to let him carry a gun? Lord forgive me! I heard he was going to be number 88 and drive for mountain dew but when did he sign with hendrick? He's my second favorite driver.

don't remember when he signed Jon but it has been a few months atleast

I know you didnt get the joke.

That is correct. My father-in-law who idolizes Jr. told me all about it a few weeks ago. I'm a #48 fan, so all my in laws love to go back and forth with me about it. Its like poetic justice Jr & Jimmy will be team mates next year!

He signed with them in June. I watched his press conference. Wish he coulda kept the #8...Teresa's a...well you know

I love Mt. Dew and Amp, but the other two parties is a different story.

I heard that, but I'm not clear on what happened between Teresa and Jr......can someone fill me in???

Dale Jr wanted majority ownership of DEI and Teresa would not go for that, JR was not happy with the way things were being run at DEI and he didnt feel that he could content for a championship. I hope that he will be good with jeffey boy and jimmy. i dont care for either of them but from their past hes got a better shot at a championship!

I heard something like that, but I wasn't sure if that was what actually happened....
