DODGE ARCA SERIES TEAM LINEUP FOR 2008!
Dodge Motorsports once again shows up in 2008 with another contending field of teams and drivers to try to capture their third Manufacturer's championship in a row!
Last year, Dodge Motorsports was able to capture most of their wins on the wings of Eddie Sharp Racing that split time between two manufacturer's. (Dodge and Toyota) Since Eddie Sharp is now a development team for Michael Waltrip Racing, Eddie Sharp will now field a full Toyota team lineup in 2008. Who will step up to the plate, and continue the success for the Dodge Motorsports development driver program for the ARCA season in 2008.

"Frank Kimmel, who parted ways with longtime car owner Larry Clement late in 2007, is paired up with Cunningham Motorsports for the Daytona season opener. And, for the first time in his career, Kimmel will be in a Dodge rather than a Ford."
Call it what you want, but I call the Manufacturer's and driver's title in 2008 all but locked up.
Man, Dodge HAS been working hard in the off season, but I never could have predicted this.
Cunningham Motorsports now becomes a two car team in ARCA!
Since Eddie Sharp Racing is now going to be in Toyota's full time , is probably the reason Dodge made this move.
Subsequently, Dodge has dropped their entire driver lineup from 2007 to make this move:
Rob Bunker
Tim Andrews
I still wonder where these guys are as well, best of luck to them!
Way to go Dodge Motorsports.
