Richard Childress Racing will have a fourth NASCAR Sprint Cup Series entry for the Oct. 5 race at Talladega Superspeedway with Mike Wallace as it tries to get a fourth team up to speed. The No. 33 Chevrolet will have sponsorship from Realtree camouflage products. Mike Wallace is the best drafter available, said RCR Vice President of Competition Mike Dillon, who indicated the No. 33 team might run at an intermediate track as well this year. Hes really good there. He always runs up front. Were taking a car and engine package that we plan on running at the [Daytona] 500 next year in February, and we couldnt think of a better guy to take and put in the car. Next season, Clint Bowyer will drive the full-time No. 33 entry. He moves over from the No. 07, which will be driven by incoming RCR driver Casey Mears, as the organization, which also fields the entries of Kevin Harvick and Jeff Burton, expands to four teams. Realtree is working with Chevrolet and RCR on a promotion that will have the RCR cars of Harvick and Bowyer as well as the Dale Earnhardt Inc. cars of Martin Truex Jr. and Paul Menard in camouflage paint schemes. The promotion will include Motorsports Authentics-produced diecasts and other merchandise as well as a sweepstakes to win a 2009 Chevy Silverado, a trip to Daytona Beach in February 2009 and a day of fishing with Capt. Rick Murphy, a hunting trip with Realtree founder Bill Jordan and other prizes. - sceneda ...
