The obvious choice one would
think would be Richard Childress Racing (RCR). They have gone as far to say that if Earnhardt wants the #3 car he can have
it.
That in itself is could be
a big incentive for Earnhardt. But in addition to getting his head back into the game, he also needs to step out of his father’s
shadow and show people he can be the MAN in NASCAR. So would RCR be the best choice to get out of his daddy’s
shadow?
That would be the one
place he could go and in all likely hood be competitive. But is RCR ready to add another team? They have just got their current
teams back on track.
In the end I am sure there
are many other teams willing to pony up the money that would be needed to sign the biggest free agent in NASCAR history.
In the end though NASCAR would
probably interfere to make sure that Earnhardt stays at DEI, because with out Jr. there is no DEI. Without DEI there is not a connection to the legacy and the merchandise that keeps many of the old fans
coming back to the racetrack and buying that all important DEI merchandise.
But more than likely though
Earnhardt will remain at DEI and continue to have moderate success. But he could still make movies, music videos, host radio
shows and make television appearances while racing for only a top 10 to 15 finish on Sunday afternoon.
If he wants to become
a great champion, he has the potential, he has the talent, but does he have the will and the concentration and dedication. .
