Ty Norris, who runs DEI for Teresa Earnhardt, said that things haven’t changed much in the past three weeks in negotiations for a new sponsor for the #1 Chevy team. ‘A lot of conversations took place over a two- or three-week stretch, and now they’ve taken a two or three week break,’ Norris said. ‘The two companies we’ve been in conversation with still seem to be there… but they’re timing is a little slower than we thought it would be. But I’m still very confident we’re going to secure sponsorship for next year.’ Scott Riggs is still rumored to be the man DEI wants. ‘That’s for others to speculate about,’ Norris said.( Winston Salem Journal ).
