    Dale Earnhardt Jr

    Someone asked him about getting a group together to buy North Wilksboro. But he has other ideas.

    If I owned a track. It would be dirt. It would only run street stocks with a claim rule. It’d pay 1k to win. We’d be done racing by 9pm. There’d be a honky tonk bar just outside turn 4 thats open 24/7.

    First he wants to weedwack NW and have iRacing scan it to use on iRacing. Talked about it in his podcasts.

    Away from the track he has come into his own. Big fan of his podcasts.

      You know as much as people have asked of Dale and as many times as he’s had to answer questions about his Dad dying and all that. I wouldn’t have blamed the guy if he turned into a real a-hole. But he’s a student of the game and a real historian. I might be as much of a fan of his as I was of his Dad. For totally different reasons though. Either way I never saw that coming. I wasn’t a Jr Nation guy when he was driving. But I am now. I never thought a dude with that much money could have such a relatable TV, radio personality. Comes off very genuine.

          JR is dumber than a rock, if his last name wasn’t Earnhardt he’d be working at McDonald’s.

            Lol. That’s about as ignorant a statement as I’ve seen in awhile.

            Better to be seen and not heard than to remove all doubt.

                Most definitely man. Genuine, not uppity, honest, relatable, that Podcasts is just awesome. As is his book.

                  The show is the spiritual descendant of Wind Tunnel. Those guys do a hell of a job.

                      You’ll like it. Just know it’s not totally about racing. Really a good book.

                        As an on-air guy he surpassed my expectations. Not meant as a dig at Senior as he had his own appeal to fans. But he generally couldn’t put more than one sentence together at a time, he was a king of one liners. But Junior has a depth and reverence for racing that I hadn’t seen when he was driving.
                        I hate time trials.

                          How about a class where the winner has to let someone who finished in the top 5, or 10, claim their engine, random draw...

                            There is. I think years ago anyone could claim an engine. Driver from another class or a fan in the stands.

                              You got that right. I feel like he loves racing the way we love racing. I think the guy has found his true calling.
