Dale Earnhardt, JrThe Nextel Cup season finale at Homestead will mark Dale Earnhardt Jr.’s 255th career start - and his 255th points race with Budweiser sponsorship. The day prior, however, will be Junior’s first start with Budweiser colors in the Busch Series.

Dale Jr., a two-time champion with 22 career victories in only 90 Busch Series starts, will race the familiar red #8 Budweiser paint scheme for Dale Earnhardt Inc. in the Ford 300 race.

Dale Jr. has two victories this season in four Busch Series starts for DEI.

    I think this is cool, but in reality this is Budweiser compromising with Jr. They know he wants to run more of these races and be given a little more control, but they continually stop him from doing so. They figure if he’s going to do it might as well have them on the car. I liked it better when he ran an Oreo or some other paint scheme. It gets boring with Budweiser on every race, they don’t do anything creative with paint schemes.
