| DALE JR IN THE #5 MONSTER ENERGY, MOUNTAIN DEW OR PEPSI CAR NEXT YEAR? |

 I am hearing that Hendrick Motorsports owner Rick Hendrick has been in talks with two beverage sponsors for Dale Earnhardt Jr.'s racecar for 2008. One is Pepsi and the other is Monster Energy (owned by Anheuser Busch who also owns Budweiser). Also hearing that the Pepsi talks could be regarding the Mountain Dew brand instead of the Pepsi brand. Pepsi has had a running relationship with Hendrick for many years as they have shared the sponsorship of Jeff Gordon's #24 car with the DuPont Corporation. Monster Energy has had a recent relationship with Dale Jr. and JR. Motorsports. Monster is all set to sponsor the late model car that Supercross legend Jeremy McGrath will drive for JR. Motorsports this year for a 10-race run. Look for an announcement soon as teams must have sponsorships and car numbers to the merchandise manufacturers by late August for merchandise to be ready for February's Speed Weeks in Daytona. - John "Captain Thunder" Nevins for CTR.com CLICK FOR MORE NASCAR NEWSCLICK HERE TO LISTEN TO THE 06/14/07 REPLAY OF THE ONLY UNCENSORED NASCAR SHOW ANYWHERE - "TWISTED METAL" WITH CAPTAIN THUNDER (NOTE - THIS IS AN UNCENSORED SHOW AND IS NOT FOR THOSE UNDER THE AGE OF 18)
