    Statement from Teresa Earnhardt/DEI: In response to today's announcement by Dale Earnhardt, Jr., that he will be leaving DEI, Teresa Earnhardt, CEO of Dale Earnhardt, Inc. issued the following statement. "While we are very disappointed that Dale Jr. has chosen to leave the family business, we remain excited about our company's future. Our aggressive expansion and diversification plans have not changed. This company has continued to thrive since Dale left us in 2001, and it will thrive following today's announcement. Dale and I built this company to be a championship-contender, and those principles still apply. Dale Earnhardt, Inc. will win, and we have other extremely talented drivers and hundreds of employees that are dedicated to the programs we founded. This company has a great legacy and a bright future, built on loyalty, integrity, and commitment."(DEI)

    Dave, I stand corrected. That was a fuck off.

    I thought NASCAR retired that number.

    its RCR's number

    "RCR can add him as the fourth and final team NASCAR permits each owner. It would team him with Kevin Harvick, who replaced the elder Earnhardt following his 2001 death, and has openly invited Junior to join the organization.

    “I’ve got to do a little soul searching on how I feel driving the No. 3 car,” Earnhardt Jr. said."

    NASCAR reserves the right to revoke or transfer car numbers to another owner/team at any time. Car numbers are non-assignable and non-transferable, except by NASCAR.

    It's not entirely out of the realm of possibility that JR could drive the #8 for someone else if NASCAR decides to allow another team to have that number.

    actually, the race teams purchase those numbers (from NASCAR) on a year to year basis. NASCAR does not determine who gets what number, just who has paid for the rights to it. Childress continues to purchase the 3 every year from NASCAR....looks like his keeping the number locked up could pay off if Jr. goes there.

    I'd like to see him go to Hendrick in a similar fashion as Johnson. That way Gordon could own Jr. in more ways than one...

    Teresa Earnhardt is tighter than an "austrian jew".
