It is supposed to be a Pepsi, or off brand of Pepsi Sponsor. The number is reported to be #81!!!!!

I cannot believe there is not some prize, pool, or giveaway based on this announcement.
With all the rumors I have heard, with all the different numbers and sponsors I have heard that were "for sure" to happen.

Somebody is asleep at the wheel around here.

Sounds like it's going to be #88

UPDATE: Fans who liked watching Dale Earnhardt Jr. in the #8 since he moved to the Nextel Cup series eight years ago will double their pleasure in 2008. Earnhardt will drive two stylized 8s next season for Hendrick Motorsports, sources told ESPN.com on Friday. Robert Yates Racing, sources said, has agreed to sell the #88 that Dale Jarrett drove to the 1999 championship.(ESPN.com)(9-14-2007)

Well i guess that will help some people out if it is true. they can always paint another 8 on their shed or car and always just add another 8 to their arm, lol

#88 Mountain Dew/AMP/National Guard Chevrolet Impala SS

I guess that means we'll now have Driver88 instead of Driver8. I remember when Geebs was geebi88, then he became geebi44. Poor bastard might be geebibroadcastbooth next year.

I felt sure it was going to be Mountain Dew 6.7. Guess I'll have to live with #88....

I'll change when it's official. My luck they'll change the number again at the last minute.
