I also like Jimmy Johnson too!! and I think Bobby Labonte is hott..lol

My 6 yr old is a huge Jimmy Johnson fan. I like that even at a young age he is picking his own drivers to like and not just liking ones that his dad and I like.

Junior's Budweiser commercials are the best commercials. I am going to miss them if they don't stay with him. Hendrick drivers are supposed to act and dress a certain way. I don't think Budweiser would fit in in their organization.

Like winners?

Act professional, dress decent. They speak intelligently not like some of the drivers. Junior doesn't exactly act like the Hendrick drivers. He is a tee shirt and jeans kinda of guy and doesn't fit their mold.

I am NOT a Hendrick fan by no means, just the opposite. I am glad I am not a Junior fan because I would not support his move to Hendrick.

His dad drove for Hendricks before he died. I don't think Dale Sr fit the mold either, but he was an excellent driver. And people either loved or hated him.

I have seen most of the Hendricks drivers wearing jeans and t-shirts, but they dress accordingly when necessary.

What's funny is Hendrick in the beginning also said the there was no room for Jr on his team and he wasn't vying for him. Guess where he ended up? Kinda ironic huh? I think they knew the whole time that that is where Jr. was going.

Jimmie Johnson!!! Woo Ohooo ... Hot Tamale!!

Dale Earnhardt Sr drove for Richard Childress for years. He ran a Hendrick car I think in the Busch series a few times years ago when Dale Jr was young.

Shadow · 07-13-2007, 08:05 AM

Junior only wants to win,so he choose a winning team,right?

cataholic · 07-13-2007, 08:29 AM

He made the best choice. He is definately better off there. They are the best
chevy team.

It just won't be the same without bud and the number 8. It will sure take some getting use to.

I heard that Hendricks is a very Christian group (nothing wrong with that at all) and that they didn't want to have beer associated with their group....and that Bud had tried a few years back to do something with Hendricks, but the deal went sour and Bud didn't want to do business with them anyway? Who knows!

I can't even imagine.....Jr without the red bud #8.....crazy. They said that since his step-mother owns the number, she wouldn't sell it to him. I wonder what his dad would think of all of this??

I think it is going to be sooo different....I don't know what the Jr fans will think....most (sorry to say) already hate Gordon and Johson (for some reason) and most are Bud fans too.

I know that Jr has gotten in trouble in the past for his actions and words, so I don't know how well he will fit into that group?! They say he is one of the nicest drivers (on the track and off the track), but he likes to cuss and swear, etc.

I guess we will have to wait and see. I wish his step-mother was handling the business better....she is going to screw up and they will no longer have racers...they will just be building motors!

Shadow · 07-13-2007, 01:05 PM

So is it for sure JR won't be driving the number 8? I thought that was still undecided.
