Earnhardt Jr. confirmed Friday he has talked to Brad Keselowski about driving the No. 88 JR Motorsports Busch Series car next week at Chicago and perhaps for additional races after that.
Earnhardt himself took over the No. 88 Chevrolet for Friday's Winn-Dixie 250 Busch race after replacing driver Shane Huffman earlier in the week.
"I think Brad Keselowski might drive in Chicago, and I'm talking to Brad about running it all the way to the race in Montreal [in August],"
Earnhardt said. "I've got a neat little thing I want to do in Montreal and Watkins Glen with a buddy of mine I used to race Corvettes with, but I've got to take him testing first to make sure he's got what it takes."
