Man, can you imagine the souvenir sales. Junior is an advertiser's dream come true.

Gracious, you are a little off there buddy. Petty has been in NASCAR a very long time, and Ralph Earnhard, was not a big NASCAR racer, he was big in local racing, and never really caught a break, it was Dale, who made that happen.
Yes Pepsi, will be banking, but you know what, people who drink Miller Lite, are not going to stop drining it, because Kurt Busch is not their man, and Bud drinkers won't stop becuase it is Khane either. That being said, Coke drinkers are still gonna drink Coke, and Pepsi Drinkers are still going to drink Pepsi., don't matter much who is in the car.

Pepsi will have record numbers at the start of the 08 season. Companies that are not even in to NASCAR were calling Hendrick up wanting to sponsor Jr.'s car!! Thats how good this guy is for sales..

Dale JR. is worth every multi million dollar that Pepsi will pay. He is the biggest draw in NASCAR, why wouldn't any sponsor want to be on the side of the car. Pepsi will reap the benefits.

Don't you mean at the beginning of 2008, far as I remember, NASCAR doesn't race in December. If you think Jr. isn't a good racer, why bring his name up. Furthermore, all sponsors spend considerable money to make sure that their products are advertised, no matter who the racer is.
Dale Sr. brought NASCAR into the modern business that it presently is, with its popularity now.
Earnhardt, is the only name that has been in NASCAR since its beginnings.
I loved Dale Sr., miss him, and now root for his son, Dale Jr. to carry on the legacy.
You have a great day.....

Not because of Junior, but because of Hendrick Motor Sports. They sponsor Jeff Gordon too.

They'll get it from commercials and sales, but not from the track. I see Jr doing about as well as he always has. I think it was a mistake for him to bring Tony Jr with him.

Yeppers. Look what it did for Budweiser (and I think Bud is a horrible beer)
