I think the link you want is in the NASCAR Rule book. But tou might fing it in NASCAR for Dummies. Numbers are owned by NASCAR and every team has to make their request for numbers every year.

I don't think what you are talking about and what they were talking about was the same thing.

This is what the original poster put.

From That's Racing ...

Hendrick can't buy the No. 8



Hendrick Motorsports will not be able to purchase the No. 8 from Dale Earnhardt Inc., nor is DEI allowed to sell it to Hendrick or any other team. "NASCAR owns the numbers and licenses them to teams on an annual basis."

However, I do love getting mooned by cartoons!

I don't have a link but Dale Sr bought the right to use the #8 from the Stravola Bros.

Really? Go find it! I wanna know! That would make sense since Ralph drove the 8. If he can't keep Bud, I'd love to see Jr. keep the 8. However, based on everything I've read, NASCAR owns it. Just like the 3. But who knows what to believe these days?

NASCAR owns and assigns car numbers to an owner(s). NASCAR reserves the right to revoke or transfer car numbers to another owner/team at any time. Car numbers are non-assignable and non-transferable, except by NASCAR. NASCAR works with teams and sponsors when a specific number is requested. If duplication of numbers occur, which usually happens with the part-time teams, the fastest qualifier usually gets to use the number unless one team is considered full-time. In 2002, the #27 was used by Scott Wimmer for Bill Davis Racing and by Kirk Shelmerdine, both part time, however, Wimmer was listed in the #27 and Shelmerdine in the #`172 and when they attempted the same races, Wimmer got to use the #27 and Shelmerdine ran the #72, so NASCAR uses it's judgement in deciding who runs the number.(9-6-1999/9-17/2003)

Couple of quick items. Ralph never drove the #8 in the cup series. The rules in NASCAR do allow for swapping of numbers but it must be done through/by NASCAR. If Teresa agrees and Rick has the correct amount of money then yes the deal can happen.

All they have to do to get around Nascar is for her to release the number back to Nascar and Hendrick request to lease it. Any money passed between them for her to do that can be done without Nascar's knowledge.

actually, DEI doesn't have to do anything but run to the bank. if they don't make a request for the number, they won't be considered for it. now if they can keep BUD from requesting it, HMS has a shot.
