Earnhardt Ganassi Racing with Felix Sabates (EGRFS) is a NASCAR team based in Concord, North Carolina, United States, owned by Dale Earnhardt's widow Teresa Earnhardt, Chip Ganassi, and Felix Sabates. This team was formed when Dale Earnhardt, Inc. agreed to merge its teams with the NASCAR operation of Chip Ganassi Racing with Felix Sabates after both teams found it difficult to secure sponsorship. Ganassi's other race teams, including its IndyCar Series team, and the business operations of DEI continue to exist as separate entities.
EGR fields the No. 1 Chevrolet SS for Jamie McMurray and the No. 42 Chevrolet for Juan Pablo Montoya full-time in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series.
Famous quotes containing the word racing:
“Upscale people are fixated with food simply because they are now able to eat so much of it without getting fat, and the reason they don’t get fat is that they maintain a profligate level of calorie expenditure. The very same people whose evenings begin with melted goat’s cheese ... get up at dawn to run, break for a mid-morning aerobics class, and watch the evening news while racing on a stationary bicycle.”
—Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)
