What are your thoughts on Dale Jr. getting a new sponsor and a new number? Do you think that Kasey Khane will have some big shoes to fill with Bud being his new sponsor? What do you all think about Dale Jr. not getting to keep the 8?

Great Move
I am so glad to see that Jr made the move to HMS next year this will give him the chance to get a fresh atart.I am also happy to see that Jr is happy which he so richly deserves.Getting new equipment will make such a difference.

I think its great
that Jr is moving to a new team. I think Kasey Kayne can fill the shoes well he is tallented enough and we all know good loking enough for the image. Jr will finally get the cars with the motors that will do him justice. sponsors don’t make drivers but image is everything to the sponsors and their money is waht makes or breaks how the tem is run.

Sponser has nothing to do with Driver ability. But they will go to a driver they think can really drve!

Life goes on.
As far as the number, its really no big deal (to me) Alot of people have had the number 8 before Jr, and plenty will have it after. Just think of the #2. Alot of people still think of Rusty Wallace, but just as many think of Kurt Busch.
Now as for Bud, my fisrt thought is Dale, but next year it will change.The only problem Kahne will have filling shoes is the problem fans will give him. As far as Kahne’s driving ability, I think Bud has a better chance of making it to victory lane.
