Give him all the crap you want, but he did apologize and took full responsibility for the wreck, maybe he did get some of the fame from daddy, but he is NASCARS most popular driver, has won the the Daytona 500, and that was AFTER Daddy had passed on. Do you think the "Chase " last year would have been more or less exciting had Dale Jr. not been in the top three, he's a dream for NASCAR, but there will always be a driver people do not like for whatever reason, thats part of what makes racing fun.

I agree.. I like Dale. He is a good driver and so what if he has his dad's name. what makes certain people on here any different then him.. just Fame. :shift:

He may have had a rich dad but he worked at his dad's Chevy dealership changing oil. Also, when he first started in the Busch series, his dad did not give him new equipment nor the best used equipment, he wanted him to learn what it was like to drive in not the best equipment so that he would appreciate it later on.

Dale Jr. is a pretty good guy who is very grounded and grateful to be where he's at. I've met him when he was racing bush and at his first year in winston cup at phoenix. Anyone who talks trash about him is either a hater or just jelious. Plus he's a great driver when his cars workin right. Gotta love all these monday morning neck car comments. :p

The greatest driver in the world is nothing without a well set up car and the best setup car is nothing with out a good driver. It really is a team sport.
He is one of the best and has come up the ranks. I can tell you as a ex kart racer champion, equipment is key to winning races but talent is the only way to get the equipment to work correctly. To be honest it was strange to meet someone who has so much act so humble and normal.

So, to follow your logic, anyone that drives for DEI, or any other well funded team that has cars dedicated for different tracks, and does not get it done would be a loser as well. So, let's use your logic, Kurt Busch waw a loser up until last year, even though his team has been well funded for years. And apparently Dale Jarret sucks as well since he has not really done anything since winning the championship.

Drivers go thru slumps just as in any other sport. I believe he has had some changes with pit cheifs and crew lately. Take a look at Stewart. Another great driver, ya he's got a abrasive attitude and i'd say he took over dale sr.'s intimidor title. He's not been doing that well lately. There's an old saying in racing "that's racin" Shit goes wrong more than it goes right.

Well, let's see, Jeff Gordon, Jimmie Johnson, Kurt Busch, to name a few. Do I know if they have 15 cars for sure certain? No I don't, but neither do you I suspect. But EVERY well funded team has anywhere from 10-15 cars. And all of the top guys are in well funded rides, in excess of $15 million per year.
You're right, you never said loser, but you say you hate someone it is reasonable for me to think you think they are loser. If I inferred incorrecly there, that's my fault.

While he can't use funding as an excuse, I can't remember him using it as one.
Have you ever race'd a real race car before? Do you know that everything on the car is adjustable? Fo instance in today's race there was a driver who took two pounds of air pressure out of the tires and went from 7th to getting lapped. Point is there's limitless way's to f up the handeling on a race car.

he is the only one that has 15 cars that I know of....
I dont care for him for one simple fact, he is making it off of his fathers name....
And to help answer questions that you cant or chose not too . NO he has never won an IROC race... He as a matter of fact does miserable... Why, he is in a vehicle that is set up the same as everyone else's, so with the level playing field he cant compete

Maybe a name will get you in the door. Good crew, good cars, money and publicity will get you in the race. But talent and a little luck on the track is what will keep you in the "Chase".
If who your dad was is all it takes, someone explain why Kerry Earnhardt hasn't accomplished anything. Even running Childress equipment?
Oh. And someone tell Robby to bag those Menard engines. Talent doesn't count for anything if you can't finish the first 1/3rd of the race.
Daytona: Wrong Intake
Charlotte: Blowed up
Mexico: Blowed up
Vegas: Blowed up
There's a bunch of drivers I can't stand, and hope to see in the wall every week. (Not to be injured, just to whack out their car(s).
Busch
Harvick
J. Gordon
Mayfield
Stewart
just to name a few.
But it still doesn't mean I don't respect them for their talent and ability to pilot a racecar.

Just to let you know, during the "off" season, the Dale Jr. cars were swapped with the Waltrip cars, Waltrip is now driving Jr.s cars and Jr Mikeys cars, also the teams were swapped, and Jr.s has an all new crew and a new crew chief, there will be some time before any team gels, Mike Waltrips former CC is now Mayfields, Yes DEI is having some woes and i am sure they'll be fixed soon, How about JJ's car being too low at post race tech, and Kyle Busch right rear fender a little too high, and of course Harvicks team and the Gas tank silliness, as to the guy having 15 cars, the same if not more can be said for a whole lotta of teams in NASCAR thats just the way it is nowadays.
Hope that can shed some light for those casual race fans..... :D :D

Lets see a caution thrown at Daytona only after Jeff Gordon passes Jr, restart and Jeffy wins, no yellow a given that Jr would have won that race, yes i am a Jr fan but it was a little questionable the way that yellow came out, California they tried an aggressive setup and it failed them , thats racin', Vegas, well just look at last year and you'll see that the Bud team has not done well there, lets see what Atlanta has to offer the Dale Jr. bashing club, although it's a non restrictor plate race he'll do well there.

and if his crew would have been next in line he would not have gotton those tires and someone else would have gotton those tires...
That was the bad luck of the draw

no it wasnt the tires it was the dumb ass crew not fixing what was wrong the first time in the pits so instead of going one lap down the first time over the total of flats he went 5or 6 down.

This thread is funny.
Like Mike said, how many drivers are not there thanks to their family?
Do you think Budwieser really cares if JR. wins or not, no, he is super popular.
Do you know how many drivers buy thier rides? Many. Talent has little to do with racing at the highest levels. It only gets worse, look at F1.
Do you take into consideration how Neckar (like any other top level sport) manipulates the race finishes?
I am a fan of Dale Jr, although I am not a fan of Neckar. He is not just a driver, but has continued his father's businesses, and raced at the same time. He didn't really want to race, his father pushed him into it.
I'm also a Robby G, and Kevin H. fan.

Here's where your screwed up. If you really love racing, Ragging on drivers is stupid. There's alot of other drivers that you could ask "why bother and why are you here?". Like Kyle petty. Now there's someone who is there because of daddy. I've met some of these guy's and am a fan of the sport because I respect what they do. I've got a challange for you. Go to a local kart track, take a class and then rent a kart for a race. If you can win a race within the first year of racing karts your pretty good. Most likely you'll be gettin lapped.
Racing is not football. While everyone has favorites, every single one of these guy's risk's his life every time they get into the car, 1 to do what they love, 2 to make lots of money and 3 to entertain fans , show some respect .

Never said they were gods or heros. I find it sad that your rippin on this guy just because of who his dad was and you don't even know him. I've met him, he's a cool guy and that's why i'm a fan. If he was a prick, paul tracy type driver i'd agree with you. By your rational you could say that all cops are fuggin A holes just because I had a bad experiance with one.

I went back and looked at the IROC races that Jr was in, and yes he did terrible except for a second place right behind his dad, that was when he was right out of Busch and getting ready to step up to Cup, i wonder how he'd do now if he were invited to run again, there might be a different outcome, and if he and his team do not get their stuff together and soon i fear that Jr. will become the NACAR equivilant of ANNA Kournikova, popular with the fans but never won the title.
Time will tell.
