This morning at 11:00 am, Dale Jr had a major announcement about the team he would drive for in 2008. Of all the teams that wanted Jr, he went with the one team I can't stand. Hendrick Motorsport is the owner of Jimmie Johnson and Jeff Gordon. The two most hated drivers in Nascar.
I've been watching racing since I was about 19 years old and have always followed an Earnhardt. I started with Dale Sr and then once Jr went to Winston Cup; I've always been a fan.
My first thought this morning was that I was going to switch drivers. I just can't see myself rooting for a Hendrick driver. I still have 8 months to take it all in and I have a feeling there is a lot of #8 fans that are thinking the same thing I am.
