September 14, 200719 yr The official announcement of Dale Earnhardt Jr.'s primary sponsorship and car number for the 2008 NASCAR season will be announced Wednesday, Sept. 19 at 1:30pm/et in Dallas, TX. The event is not open to the public.(Hendrick Motorsports PR)(9-13-2007) from Jayski I say it will be DLP. They are headquartered in Dallas, have been involved in NASCAR thru Hall of Fame Racing, and after HOF announcing they are going w/ Toyota, they may have a desire to stay on a Chevy. I don't have any inside info, just pure speculation here.

I don't have any inside info, just pure speculation here. DLP isn't a big enough household name for Dale Jr. I look for it to be something like Mountain Dew or Visa . His sponser will also have somethings to do with the younger crowd. More fan friendly EQUALS more money.
September 14, 200719 yr Didn't think about Pepsi being in Dallas. Please disregard my earlier post. DLP who? :creepy:
September 14, 200719 yr It's definitely going to be PepsiCo products. I'm guessing the #81 with Mt. Dew as the primary.
September 15, 200719 yr Amp would be a good sponsor for Jr. And the National Gaurd as well. On a side note, it was announced today that Kasey Kahne will be sponsored by Budweiser next season. The Budwieser Dodge.... just doesn't sound right. #9 Bud Car
September 15, 200719 yr I have heard that Adidas is involved some how maybe a car with the 3 stripes is what he will be in . Definetly would appeal to the younger crowd JMO
September 16, 200719 yr 88 Mountain Dew and-or Amp Energy (one of two energy drinks marketed under the Mountain Dew label) Chevy, with additional sponsorship from the Guard as reported earlier. Casey Mears takes over the 5 with sponsorship rolling over from this season. Why do people still keep falling back on Visa? Nobody significant from that brand was interested in being the primary sponsor of a NASCAR team.

September 19, 200719 yr If Nascar or Yates reportedly balked at giving the #38 to Hendrick why is there no issue with the #88 switching as well?
