Okay, so I was digging around for some NASCAR trivia, and this question popped into my head: who owns the #8 car? It’s a pretty iconic number, you know? So, I started my little investigation.
My Deep Dive into the #8
First, I just did a basic search. You know, typed in “who owns the 8 car in NASCAR” and see what comes up.

Initial Findings:
- I hit a bunch of articles and forum posts. Lots of names popping up – Earnhardt, Childress… it was a bit overwhelming at first!
So, I started to piece things together. I found out that the #8 has a pretty rich history, with different drivers and teams over the years.
Organizing the Info:
- I decided to focus on the more recent history. I created some document and jot down the key names associated with the #8.
- Reading forums made things a bit simple.
Then, I wanted to be absolutely sure, so I looked for some super reliable sources like official NASCAR pages if I could find them.
Confirming My Info:

- Checked out some other NASCAR fan pages and I double-check everything there.
Finally I get that, currently, Kyle Busch drives the #8 Chevrolet for Richard Childress Racing (RCR). So, Richard Childress, the owner of RCR, is the guy who owns the #8 car.
