It's Official - Dale Earnhardt Jr. driving for HMS in 2008
The long awaited announcement was made this morning at JR Motorsports. Dale Earnhardt Jr. has signed a five year deal with Hendrick Motorsports.
According to Mr. Hendrick, car number and sponsor has not been ironed out quite yet. It's probably more like they do have it all in place but need all the contracts finished before announcing, at least that's my guess.
Hendrick also said that the decision on letting Kyle Busch go was a mutual thing between him and Busch. Contract negotiations have been going on for a while and Busch has been contacted by others and Hendrick thought it would be best for both of them to have fresh starts. At least that's the story he gives and we have no way of knowing differently unless Busch says something that if quite different than what Hendrick said.
Your thoughts. Good move by Jr. or not?
