Hell yeah. But those days are gone forever. Off topic, but Jr is having a new paint job on his car for the next race. Pretty cool.

Well, he didn't make the decision on that. And it's only because this sunday is Dale Earnhardt Day in alabama. He was saying awhile back that he wanted to drive the #3 someday. That would have been weak. I think his stepmom (boss) shot that down.

#3 isn't his choice. The car owners own th enumbers, meaning Childress.
i think this is a one off deal.

Yes, Childress Racing still has rights to the #3 for use in NASCAR, but I read somewhere that Dale had the "3" as it appeared on his car copyrighted, so that it couldn't be used on unlicensed merchandise and stuff. If that's the case, would the copyright be transferred to Theresa upon his death?

Theresa is Dale Jr's team owner. She is his boss and if she says he won't have the 3, then he won't have it. It was her decision to paint it black for the Talledega race.

Ok AL...Dodge Viper, Plymouth Prowler, Chrysler Crossfire, 300, Magnum, Charger and the new one that looks like a mini magnum(can't remember the name) And 11Bravo I agree with you 100%. Mike Helton needs to get his head out of his ass. 5 years ago you could bump draft (Earnhart) and it was "just racing" now it's fines and more. It's ok to dress nice but when I see Nascar drivers in the style section of stuff or Maxim it has jumped the shark.

Those are some piss poor examples.
Viper is worthless now. GM built a car better, faster, and cheaper. Game Over. Viper was cool in '95.
And you know who jammed that Viper concept down everyones throat, and got it out to showrooms in 18 months?
Take a stab.
Give up?
That man right above me is Bob Lutz. He made things happen at Chrysler when all they cared about were K-Cars and Minivans.
Wana take a crack at where he works now? (If the picture doesnt give it away, maybe this will)
And probably the best, most recent picture...
Anyway, GM has a lot to offer, a lot more then Chrysler does.
