I found them!! Dale Jr's Special Paint Schemes for 2009!

Check it out! I just happened to stumble across the pictures for Junebug's special paint scheme's for the 2009 season. (Then, Junior does like to surprise Jr Nation every now and then so there might be some more out there that we don't know about!)



I love this one! (I love all of them, but this is a really cool one!) Notice the "M" to the right side of the 88 on the side? I watched NASCAR Raceday and Hermie Sadler had Junebug explain what "88M" means. Dale Jr said that it's program started by the National Guard that will not only help those interested earn their CDL license, but will then help them get a job with a reputable company.
For the All-Star Race this year:
Dale Jr will be driving a scheme that features the Dale Earnhardt Jr. Foundation as the primary sponsor. The car features a very simple paint scheme, free of any striping or accents and stripes. The hood features the logo of the Dale Jr. Foundation. The Mountain Dew logo remains in its proper spot and the National Guard logo appears just below on the rear quarter panels.

Dale Jr will be driving another special paint scheme for Mountain Dew next week.

This is a great looking car. The base color is black with complimentary Mountain Dew colors and a silver accent down the sides. The Mountain Dew brand always lends itself to great looking race cars. This one is particularly nice as it is always fun to see an Earnhardt on the track in a black race car.


I'm not too crazy about this next one because it pretty much looks the same as the car from the 4th of July from last year, except that the top part is all black.
At the July Daytona race, Dale Jr. will have special colors on his car for the National Guard. This car will feature another black hood with a special camo pattern down the sides. This special paint scheme will be a great tribute to the National Guard as the Daytona race will be run on the 4th of July.
