Keselowski confident of '09 sponsorship
Sponsorship for the No. 88 JR Motorsports NASCAR Nationwide Series team has yet to be announced, but driver Brad Keselowski said he isn't worried about the future. The U.S. Navy decided to end its NASCAR involvement at the end of the 2008 season, leaving Keselowski without a backer for 2009. Team co-owner Dale Earnhardt Jr. has had to cut back JR Motorsports' No. 5 entry to a limited schedule because of a lack of sponsorship, but the No. 88 team remains full time. Keselowski said his team will use a combination of sponsors for '09. The team's engineering department has been reworked some, Keselowski said. Keselowski, who finished third in the Nationwide standings last year in his first full season with the team, said he hopes to contend for the series title next season. Veteran Tony Eury Sr. returns as Keselowski's crew chief, a year after being persuaded by Earnhardt Jr. to take on the added role.

Exactly. I'm sure Hendrick will have Lowes/DuPont/Amp somewhere along the line as sponsors. Brad will surely be driving the Mark Martin car in 2010/2011.
