Not that there was a lot of speculation about
Dodge possibly dropping out, but Dodge's senior manager for
motorsports, Mike Deahanty, says the brands presence in
NASCAR will remain under
Chrysler's new ownership by Cerberus Capital Management. Petty
Enterprises and Evernham Motorsports have both renewed their contracts with Dodge.
Top Speed, however, says sponsorship for the Evernham team, which currently includes Dodge dealers and the United Auto Workers, could change, with Budweiser rumored to be interested in paying Kasey Kahne to wear its red livery.
So rest easy, NASCAR Dodge fans. You'll still be able to see Dodge Chargers (or at least machines with Charger written across the nose) roaring around in circles.
