For a guy who didn't go to college, has been in the racing world for a long time, and hasn't gotten to the level where I imagine he's been inundated with media training, Wallace is such a remarkably well spoken driver. In all the interviews he had such a tremendous ability to place this moment in history and talk about race in a context that (as this subreddit has seen) can be really difficult. Given how much of a driving talent he appears to be, I've got to imagine a lot of sponsors are looking at him and thinking he is a really attractive proposition right now.

I hope so, I still think he needs another solid year in trucks then Nationwide and maybe by then this story will be history anyway and he will have an easier time moving up.

I've liked Ambrose since his days in V8SC. He's just a straight up dude. To be honest though I haven't seen that many #9 flairs, just you and thats it.

Be careful! The 9 flair makes the circle jerk flow in the opposite direction!

He's definitely got more development time ahead of him, but having some sponsors that really want to line up with him will be huge for securing his development spot at JGR.
Bubba just has a really likable, authentic, passionate personality. He comes across like a real guy who is so psyched to be doing what he's doing. Plus, he's got some style and a little swag. I think that's what a lot of fans respond to. I know I do.
