Latest is Jr will not announce today who he will drive for next year. They had a full company meeting this morning to tell them he will NOT be driving for DEI next year.
Hendrick and RCR are the teams who could be interested.
He has sponsors lining up at the door, per Marty Smith...but already has the biggest sponsor he needs.
Rumor that Gilliland may go to DEI and there may be a merger with Yates. Good luck with all that T.
Ping-a-ling!
Earnhardt to leave DEI after season

So after the dust has settled a bit, what do you think about it?
Yesterday's rumor was Dale Jr and MT jr leaving. No mention of MT jr today. Yesterday's version was a nightmare, I thought - starting up their own Cup team.....
Today's release was much better - going somewhere. And big $$$ will follow, no doubt.
So who gets kicked off the HMS team? lol
RCR - ? For some reason, I don't think that is where he will end up.
No matter where he goes though (and this was cool), Bud said, "Ummm....we follow him!", and I have no doubt he will be driving a car with the #8 on it. What, Nascar going to say, "No" - ? To Jr and the sponsor? Not likely.
