Default Alltel - 06-05-2008 , 05:00 PM






Verizon IS going to buy Alltel - shades of ATT & Burton. I wonder how
the 12 team will be dealt with by their Alltel sponsor. Isn't that
Newman's sole big sponsor? I can't recall seeing a different scheme
on his car, although there must have been some off and on....

He was running Sony at Fontana in 2005, but that might have been for one
race (it was the Sony HD 500).

Jayski has 3 non-Alltel paint schemes for the #12. Avis, Kodak, and one for
the new "Mummy" movie coming out this summer.

Well don't go looking for the Verizon red & white color scheme to show
up anytime soon on Ryan's car. Look what happened to Jeff Burton's
Cingular logo back when it was Nextel Cup!

That and Newman's Verizon car would be like having a Marlboro primary
scheme on a car in the Winston Cup days!

Mister Rogers says "Conflict of interest".

Plus, there's that dratted contract from when Nextel/Sprint bought out
the Cup series. Maybe UPS could jump on the 12....
