Dale Earnhardt Inc. team owner Teresa Earnhardt appears to be questioning stepson #8-Dale Earnhardt Jr.'s commitment to racing in an interview with the Wall Street Journal. The story in Thursday's edition [subscription only] says Earnhardt Jr.'s contract with the team founded by his father expires after the 2007 season, but Teresa Earnhardt expressed uncertainty about his future. "Right now the ball's in his court to decided on whether he wants to be a NASCAR driver or whether he wants to be a public personality." Earnhardt Jr. "was not available for comment" on the statement, the story said.(SceneDaily.com)(12-15-2006)

Stewart drove for Menard when I started pulling for him. Trust me, you don't want Earnhardt racing for him.

Agreed.

And it sounds to me like Teresa's looking for any excuse to get rid of her stepson....they've been at it for years anyways, and everyone knows they don't get along very well....

If you look at the results that Bobby Labonte had in the #43 car in 2006 that team is more than capable of running competitively. Labonte had a realistic chance to have a victory or two during the season and even had a car capable of it when mechanical issues arose in a few events. I'm certain Dale Earnhardt Jr. in a Petty ride would easily achieve similar results to those of Bobby Labonte's and probably in a shorter period of time no less.

However as much as I would love to see the Earnhardt and Petty names together on the same team, the thought is nothing more than a dream. While that thought is a dream that get's my hopes high, it's also one that is unlikely to come true. I wouldn't expect Jr. to be leaving DEI anytime soon though, because this story seems more the product of an overzealous press looking for an audience; an audience that is all too willing to listen to whatever information is spoonfed their way.
