Earnhardt Ganassi Racing - Earnhardt Ganassi Racing

In November 2008 two of auto racing’s biggest names – Earnhardt and Ganassi – launched a multi-car race team through the combination of the motorsports operations of Dale Earnhardt, Inc. and Chip Ganassi Racing with Felix Sabates. Combined, the new Earnhardt Ganassi Racing with Felix Sabates now sports a history that includes six NASCAR championships, over 120 victories, 75 pole positions, over 200 top-fives and three Daytona 500 crowns.

Dale Earnhardt Inc. was formed by Dale and Teresa Earnhardt in February of 1980. The organization quickly grew from its humble beginnings of a three-bay garage to a beautiful headquarters that include administration offices, show room, and retail store.

The organization won 24 races at the NASCAR Sprint Cup level and claimed 127 top-five finishes, 246 top-10 finishes and 14 poles. Dale Earnhardt Jr., Martin Truex Jr., Michael Waltrip and Steve Park all won Sprint Cup races under the Dale Earnhardt Inc. banner.

The organization’s results were even more impressive in the NASCAR Nationwide Series. Its list of accomplishments includes 57 wins, 184 top-fives, 281 top-10s and 30 poles from 1984 to 2008. Dale Earnhardt Jr. won back-to-back NNS titles for the team in 1998 and 1999 and Truex repeated the feat in 2004 and 2005.
