    another reason is tony eury jr what did jr do with tony jr as a crew chief before run about 14th or so eury jr is the biggest part of the problem over the last 3 years

    Not as long as Gordon and Johnson are with that team and Tony Stewart and Matt Kensenth are racing. Statistically Kyle Busch was a better driver in 2007 than Earnhardt. At least there won't be any more excuses made concerning his step mom.

    His chances to win the a championship have increased big time. Better equipment and a better team. I do not think it will happen his first yr at HMS, but he certainly has the equipment, and determination to win races and a championship or two.

    Go Dale Jr & Hms in 2008

    Juniors chances of a championship has increased with him going to Hendrick.This year is not a good bet however look for a strong season and the foundation for a championship soon.

    I think he has a great chance this year. A lot of people have high expectations for him but he has even higher ones for himself. He said in an interview once that nobody is harder on him than he is himself. I think this attitude will help him strive for wins this year.

    Of course he can if he puts enough effort into it. He is going to race with one of the best teams this year and they have great cars that don't break down easily. Jr. is going to be racing with some of the most talented guys racing with Nascar today including back to back Nextel Cup winner Jimmie Johnson. I think Jr. is going to have a great yr and you never know it just moght be his year for the victory.

    If he ever does win a championship, it will be at Hendrick Motorsports, but he has to go through Johnson and Gordon to do it, and I'm not convinced that Tony Eury is the best crew chief for him. Doubtful he will do it this year, but if things go well, maybe next year.

    He has is best chance being with the Champions at Hendrick Motorsports, but seeing he is overrated and living off his dead father coattails, he more then likly to find as way to screw it up

    As long as Jeff & Jimmie are still with HMS & Stewart, Kenseth, Busch & others are still racing then, I would say no but if those drivers retired from racing, then maybe he would have a chance.
