NASCAR Holiday Feature

He’s been NASCAR’s most popular driver since arriving full-time in the Cup Series back in 2000, and now for the first time in his 8 year career in the Cup, Dale Earnhardt Jr. will not be sporting a number 8 Budweiser logo. It’s a well-known fact by now that Junior will be driving the number 88 next season for Hendrick Motorsports with Mountain Dew Amp bucking up as his primary sponsor.

Well, if you know someone who’s a “fan” – and, I’m sure you do – and, you’ve been watching them pout these past few months trying to figure out what they’re going to do with all of their no. 8 gear in 2008, you can help them out by making their Christmas just a little bit brighter. Visit www.nascar.com and follow the link the Superstore, and you can be the first to purchase a new Dale Jr Mountain Dew Amp jacket. The going price right now is $105, but keep in mind that as widespread as Junior Nation has become in recent years, items like these may be hard to come by for a few months. The website says that if you order now, you can have it delivered by Christmas, and the reviews thus far have been great.
