I'm sure the combination Hendrick/JR won't dominate the attention of the media, right

Thats true but I've always liked Jr. He seems really down to earth considering who his Dad is.

Four wins for Dale Jr.? #88 crew chief, Tony Eury Jr. is convinced they [he and Dale Earnhardt Jr.] can make the most of that close relationship and win races this season, something that didn't happen in a lame-duck year at DEI. How many will they win? "I'd be very disappointed if we don't win at least four," Eury said. "I don't think that's out of line at all. We can get the job done. It's just a matter of getting the right breaks and making the right calls. If we do that, we have a shot at getting in the Chase and winning the title."
"We have to get a little bit faster, but all in all, I couldn't be happier," Eury said from Daytona International Speedway. "I've been pumped, and Dale Jr. is more pumped up than I've ever seen him.

Well most JR fans were probably used to seeing double 8's on Sunday

JR not driving the Bud car is going to take some getting used to.

The first few weeks of any new season is always a challenge (not like ours, mind you!), and even the announcers stumble now and then. I expect by Daytona in July we'll all have it straight.
