Well. He's kinda stuck betwen a rock and a hard place. When ya think about it. DEI is Jr.s' Dads' incorporation. Jrs' Dad also drove for RCR at one time also. It's gotta be a hard decision to make. I'm all for Jr. tho. I'm waiting for him to win a race. Poor guy, It seems to always be something. When he's doing good, close to the front, or in the front, his engine blows, something's happens to his tires, somethings either too tight or too loose. I'm beginning to wonder if somebody's messing with his car right before it goes out to race. How? I have no idea. Does make ya wonder tho.? OH! As far as driving the #3 . Last I heard, was that he didn't want to race the #3. He wants to continue to race the #8 . Because of the #8 being his Grandfathers number.

It all depends of what Theresa Earnhardt does. If she is smart enought to realize that a DEI without a DE is just an I, and gives Dale Jr. the contract he deserves, than he will be driving the #8 Budweiser Chevy for DEI next year and for years to come!
If Theresa wishes to remain bullheaded on the issues, and thinks that "I" is enough to continue on into the future, than she is just plain old "STUPD." (She can put her own "I" in there). Dale Jr. will pack his bags, AND his sponsors and head on out.
What happens there is a great topic of debate. The #8 is owned by DEI. They bought the rights to that number because Dale Sr. wanted to have HIS daddy's number on one of his cars. So, if Dale Jr. leaves, I believe he can take Budweiser with him, but he'll have to leave the #8 behind.
Where will he go? Maybe he'll just form his own team with Jr. Motorsports. Richard Childress would be more than willing to align himself with Jr. for support. RC would love it even more if Dale Jr. would race for him.
I've said it for the last few years. Dale Jr. would compete better if he were in a more competitive racing organization. Just look at the RCR numbers! Jeff Burton was struggling his last 3 years at Rouch racing. He went to RCR and has become a force to be reckoned with!
If Dale Jr. were to go to RCR, I predict the following three things would happen:
1) Richard Childress doesn't own the #8, BUT HE DOES
OWN THE #3!!! And, there's not a NASCAR fan in the
world that would be upset to see Dale Jr. in his daddy's
ride.
2) Goodwrench and Budweiser compete in a BIG bidding
war between Goodwrench and Budweiser for the
sponsorship rights the car.
3) Dale Jr. would win CHAMPIONSHIPS!!

Dale Jr. is DEI. He will not be going anywhere. Teresa is not dumb. She will give up some control. It will be enough to keep Dale right where he needs to be..... Racing his daddys cars. And if he dosent seek control of the #3...... he is f------ up. Dale Jr. should be driving the car that has his dads number on it. It will inspire him beyond the point that he will have to ask the Dally Lama. I am a big Jeff Gordon fan.

I really hope he takes the best situation he can win races in and not neccessarily the most money. I think its time to break out of his father's shadow and go somewhere where he has a legitimate shot to win a Nextel Cup against Hendrick, Roush, and Gibbs. I may not be the biggest Junior fan, but I know he is good for the sport.

I think that Dale jr will probably continue until he is as good as his dad was or...........maybe he will have his own race to se how that goes, but ya never know.

I would be surprised if there was a change. He will drive the red #8 in 2008

he very well could stay with dei but teresa needs to wake up and if not i think he will go with rcr seeing how there is not a goowrench sponsered car out there as harvick has went to pennzoil which leaves the door wide open

Still in the number 8 car.
Uncle Tony and Tony Junior will talk to him.
That's all I have to say about that.

He will stay at DEI. He is loyal to his father's dream. He knows that if he leaves DEI will not make it. Even though he would be in better equipment at RCR, he will tough it out at least until DEI is strong once again.

I have a feeling that he'll move over with Kev. Harvick and the RCR race team.
