Richard Petty about A.J.’s future plans:

from a Dodge Motorsports NSCS Teleconference Transcript:
Q: WITH ALLMENDINGERS THIRD-PLACE FINISH AT DAYTONA, HOW MUCH WILL THAT HELP YOU FIND ADDITIONAL SPONSORS FOR THE 44 CAR?
A: “Its got to be a plus-plus. I think weve got sponsorship for 10 or 12 races right now and were already committed for the first six or eight races. We feel like if he (Allmendinger) can continue to show promise and do as well as he did at Daytona, then we feel very confident that well be able to pick up different sponsors over a period of time to continue running him. If he keeps running like he did at Daytona, Ill just run him out of my pocket because hell be bringing the money back in.”(Dodge Motorsport PR)
