Earnhardt and Time Warner team up
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Dale Earnhardt Jr.'s No. 88 Hendrick Motorsports Chevy will be sponsored by Time Warner Cable this weekend at Richmond International Raceway.
Last October, the video, high-speed data and phone services provider signed a three-year extension with Hendrick that included a limited primary sponsorship with Kasey Kahne. TWC first partnered with Hendrick Motorsports as an associate sponsor in 2006 and will continue with the No. 5 Chevy for five races the next two seasons.
In addition to Richmond, TWC will sponsor Earnhardt at Chicago, Loudon, Kansas City and Charlotte in the Chase.
