Dale Jr. excited to be back, Edwards seen with his new No. 19 and more
The Goodyear Tire test at Charlotte Motor Speedway that included drivers Dale Earnhardt Jr., Carl Edwards, Sam Hornish Jr. and Paul Menard was closed to media, but that didn't stop us from compiling scenes and comments that were coming in via social media. Earnhardt Jr., who lists CMS as the track at which he'd most like to visit Victory Lane, was clearly excited about getting back to work on Tuesday with new crew chief Greg Ives.
Meanwhile, Boris at JGR provided a glimpse of Carl Edwards and the new No. 19 Toyota he will drive in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series for Joe Gibbs Racing. See why Edwards told NASCAR.com's Zack Albert that anything less than a championship will be a disappointment in his first year with the new team.
Performance Racing Network's Doug Rice sent this vine of Edwards rolling in his new ride.
Here, Edwards is shown talking with his new crew chief, Darian Grubb:
Hendrick Motorsports sent us this sunny look of Dale Jr.'s hauler pulled into the garage area at Charlotte Motor Speedway. Makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside, doesn't it?
PRN's Rice vined Hornish Jr. rolling in the No. 9 for Richard Petty Motorsports. We see you Sam!
