Dale Earnhardt Jr. Returns to NASCAR with No. 8

Dale Earnhardt Jr. is set to make a nostalgic return to racing with the iconic No. 8 Budweiser Chevrolet, marking its first appearance in 17 years at the South Carolina 400 on November 23, 2024. This reunion comes after Earnhardt Jr. regained the rights to the No. 8 trademark, previously held by his stepmother. The nostalgic design is part of a limited series of Late Model Stock Car races scheduled for 2024 and 2025. Earnhardt expressed excitement about reuniting with Budweiser, a brand he partnered with from 1999 to 2007, highlighting their strong history together. Anheuser-Busch, Budweiser's parent company, has a long-standing commitment to NASCAR and looks forward to this collaboration. The return of the No. 8 Budweiser scheme is expected to resonate with racing fans and evoke fond memories from Earnhardt's successful career.
