been told the team will switch from the #84 to #82 for Speed in 2009, see images of the diecast car on my #82 Team Schemes page.(11-8-2008) UPDATE: After ruffling fenders in ARCA and the Craftsman Truck Series, Speed graduates to a full-time Sprint Cup ride in 2009. He drove the ##84 in four races and the #83 in one to close last season. Speed, switching to a silver #82, will contend for rookie of the year and start the season locked inside the top 35 in car owner points under the watch of returning crew chief Jimmy Elledge. He’s guaranteed a starting spot in the first five races, including the season-opening Daytona 500. He’ll also run a partial Nationwide Series schedule in the #99 Michael Waltrip Racing Toyota. After a two-year stint in the NASCAR garage, the #84 retires to the RBRT museum/race shop in Mooresville, NC.(RBRT PR)(12-1-2008)
