About the Free the 8 Campaign
The Free the 8 Campaign is a fan initiated effort, whose goal is for NASCAR driver Dale Earnhardt, Jr. to be allowed to continue to use his #8 car number, currently assigned to DEI Motorsports, next year at his new team, Hendrick Motorsports. Both Dale Earnhardt, Jr. and his future car owner, Rick Hendrick, have stated that they would like to have the #8 to continue Jr.'s legacy in 2008. We, as supporting fans, and wanting everything our driver wants to make him happy in 2008, have devised a petition to make our wishes known to all parties involved: Brian France (CEO of NASCAR), Teresa Earnhardt (Car Owner at DEI), Rick Hendrick (Car Owner at Hendrick Motorsports), and even Dale Earnhardt, Jr.
The petition being used is a Certified Petition, where all IP addresses, dates, and times will be recorded, then sent to the above intended targets, as well as the Mass-Media, for review. Our hope is that, even if DEI will not free the #8, Brian France (NASCAR CEO) might step in to reassign the number to Hendrick Motorsports. For more information on the assignment of car numbers, the history of the #8 car, and why it is important to not only Dale Jr., but his fans as well, check out the History of the #8 section. Also, make sure to check out and sign the petition.
