Thing about Dale jr so unpretentious and honest

@mariejr8808 3 жыл бұрын

The biggest thing with Dale JR is he never got really good cars after his dad died, they knew that it didn’t matter what he did they could get a sponsor for because of who he was but he never really got to shine after his dad passed because his step mom didn’t give him the good cars and even sometimes at Headrick they would use him to test stuff out but I don’t think we ever really got to see him shine for who he was not just his name

@TonyH2468 3 жыл бұрын

His fans could be annoying....but Jr has always been so down to earth and humble as long as he’s been in nascar. It’s kind of the same thing with Chase Elliot today. I like Chase Elliot a lot, and i think he’ll have a better career then Jr to be honest, but it’s hard to cheer for him at times cause he is the sports new most popular driver and his fans are SOOO annoying. But a chase seems like a cool guy.

@fishhuntadventure 4 жыл бұрын

“eight opportunities to dump me and he didn’t” Ahem. That’s part of what’s wrong with a lot of these young drivers! No respect for other drivers, no respect for million dollar equipment, it’s all about them. They could use a little watching of the Allisons, Pearson, Petty, the elder Walteip, Mark Martin... That was an awesome clip.

Jimmie Johnson's win streak forced NASCAR to change rules so no one can win multiple championships anymore so no one will win 4-5 so stop being mad because a guy hates losing more than whoever ur driver is, damn Busch haters always complaining about his attitude when he loses but don't realize he's actually a great dude in every day life, y'all are just like Earnhardt haters who were mad because he'd wreck someone to win knowing it's really cause he won was why they were haters lol, Dale Jr said Kyle is the closest driver who cared as much about winning as his dad, winners get pissed when they don't win deal with it.

What does Kyle have to do with this video? With that said he may win over 200 races with all three series combined. And IMO, that would be more impressive than Richard Petty's 200 wins.
