With all the new car numbers out there today, it inspired me to think up some trivia to get us acquainted with them.
New Car Numbers: 26, 1, 66, 55, 14, 96 Remember, no cheating.
1- Of these numbers, which one did Earnhardt Sr. drive for?
2- Which car number has a current driver that has driven that number at least five other seasons?
3- Which number had the great honor of having being driven by all three Bodine Brothers?
4- Which car number was driven by a Truck Series commentator and a Truck Series Champion?
5- Which one did Handsome Harry once drive for?
6- And finally, which of these numbers has had 7 different Cup Champions drive for them at one time or another?
