Dale Jr Set To Announce Sponsor and Number NextWeek
So what do you think his number and sponsor will be? David Poole tried to get the scoop on the number thing by checking recently filed trademarks made by Rick Hendrick and found that he had filed trademarks for the numbers 80, 81, 82, 85, 86, 87, 89, 08, and 38 - I also heard, but as of yet confirmed, that a trademark has been filed for the number 88 as well.
So I think the number selection has been narrowed down a bit, heh. In any event it appears that the new number will definitely have an 8 in it. My vote? 08, 80, 38, 88 in that order.
Sponsor? A lot of people are still saying Mountain Dew or AMP ( a Mtn Dew variant I believe). I even had some one email me weeks ago claiming they had 'inside' info that it is AMP - but they wouldn't give me any hint of who that source might be. I still think that Pepsi should be the primary sponsor while running special one race deals (with special paint jobs to get the merchandising sales) with other Pepsi products on the car like Mountain Dew.
Anyway, let me hear what you have to say. Let's keep the debate going at least until Monday.

BTW - I tried to comment over at The Pit Stop yesterday and it wouldn't let me. FYI. It was (is) a nice post.

Thanks, although the National Guard thing isn't too shabby of an idea - he does have Navy on his Busch car after all. I'll look into the posting thing over at The Pit Stop, we've been getting aton of spam there and I wonder if that has something to do with it.
Take Care.
