Dale Jr.'s Take on Hailie Deegan News and Post-Race Retaliation at NASCAR Chicago Street Race

[@jonathanherndon8180]

Appreciate your input on Hailie Deegan.Personally I listened to all 17 races on incar and came to the conclusion that AMR didn’t really listen to Hailie’s input. Logano’s input mirrored Hailie’s own on that car. He got wholesale changes even a camber change. Hailie got tire pressure or shock clicks. The last 10 races car was awful. Hope you guys can help Her find the right team

[@legendarythompson431]

I agree, I listened to some of her in car and they didn't do any of the major changes she asked for

[@zitrogarage2636]

And one point I believe Joey said car was tight or loose something in that area and they ask him if they go up or down in tire pressure? Mind you the crew chief is the head of competition 👀

[@Wklambert]

Gotta be honest. Love the show. Having a co-host makes for a better convo. Especially someone like TJ that's been in the sport for a while. The banter it opens up in the show is amazing. Dale opens up more, when he has folks to talk to who've been around the Nascar block. No offense to anyone on the show. None at all. They all do a fantastic job. There is just a fresh element when it's more of a discussion. Random co-hosts are good for the show, imo.

[@DirtyMoMedia]

Thank you for your feedback! We appreciate you watching.

I totally agree with this. Spot on!

[@stephenadams5293]

Awesome to see TJ on. You guys still have a great chemistry

[@mintoxace5571]

Yeah no way was anyone beating SVG for the win in Cup is he wasn’t wrecked by Briscoe. He easily drove to the stage win in the first stage, and was just taking it easy minding his own business til he got taken out. Ask Larson how he feels about SVG on a street course. 😊

[@tomrowe7534]

“Where ever we’re gonna live, live it hard”, JR awesome quote

[@fishhuntadventure]

59:12 SVG is enormously competitive and that’s a joy to watch. But the way he races clean is why I am a fan. I like good racing more than anything and clean racing is what I want to see. I hate this crashing and banging on purpose as a mainstay of a race. I want people to race cars not take positions. I want racing not a pinball game.

[@darrylniehoff2707]

Larson because of his dominance in the points can play the checkers or wreckers game . Remember he missed a race and still leads the points .

[@1Buckluck]

Yes thank you Nascar! You listened and let the teams choose wet weather or slicks!!! I am surprised that was a great race period!!

Great show. Jr. is an amazing personality.

[@joeystultz]

I’m not a Larson fan, but I’ve gained a lot of respect for him. Because he goes for it. Plus his answers after each race during his time at Hendrick. I’ve gained a lot of respect.

[@nomadman5288]

Yes, in 2021, Bowman won 4 races which was tied for the second most with Truex behind Larson's 10. He won at Richmond after beating Hamlin on a restart, Dover, Pocono after Larson's flat and then beat Denny again at Martinsville when he got in hot and spun him and Denny pulled his car up to Bowman's after the race. Like, he had a really good season. Then in 2022, he beat Larson at Vegas on a restart and that was the last time he won. I feel like he could "figure it out" at any moment and start winning 3-4 races every year. Maybe this will be the start of some comfidence for him and that whole team to propel them forward. I don't know if he's a championship driver, but he's a final 8 driver on any given year.

[@anitagarrison6916]

😂 Dale Jr on the chip. 😂 🤣 Oh my gosh.... I'm laughing my butt off 🤣

[@DerrickRG]

This show is peak comedy when Dale is in that mood 😂.

[@rosssimpson7642]

Reading between the lines, there needs to be a demo derby. Where every driver/ team enters a car (with a max budget on the car) and goes nuts. Live stream it, the next day after the final race of the year ,and a decent purse to win. Let the gloves come off 💪

[@trevleisner]

Junior had me laughing pretty good a few times in this episode. 😂 Hes a funny guy.

[@WTFraley]

1. TJ is awesome and awesome cohost. Please have him on more. 2. Cautions leading into a Stage Break…if NASCAR would set a standard rule that everyone knows about before the race starts, I think this is a great idea. Just say for all races, if the yellow flies with X amount left in a stage, that is the stage break. Everyone knows it going in and can work with that. It’s no different than knowing ahead of time if the caution flies before the white flag it’s overtime, if not it’s not.

Jr’s going to be at Bowman’s next party I guarantee it

[@kandkfam]

Do not agree with "bumping" any car during the cool-down/victory lap. The friendly, congratulatory taps are one thing, but there should be a penalty when it's vengeful and wrecks the bumped car in any way. They can talk it out or shove each other around after they're out of their cars. The last thing the race winner needs is to have his car hit hard while celebrating his win. I would be surprised if Papa Hendrick didn't make a phone call to MJ to tell him to stop wrecking his cars after the checkered flag.

[@philmcleod111]

@kandkfam, Don't wreck the cars, let them duke it out in the pits. then sell tickets,

[@DaveReece-u4b]

You may not like it, however it happens almost every race. The only place it shouldn’t happen is in the pits.

I think they should not count laps during stage breaks. I hate it takes laps from green flag racing. It would add to strategy calls, and you could still do competitive stops. Maybe even allow cars to do major repairs without lap loss. 🤔

[@nomadman5288]

Just have 2 stages at RCs instead of 3. The races are just too short to have 3 stages because that's another 4-5 laps each stage break under caution and at tracks like COTA and even Chicago, they're only going 75 and 64 laps respectively. Honestly, I wouldn't mind just going with timed races for the road courses. 2 hrs, 15 mins for all road races regardless of size or anything. That''s 135 mins which I think is just enough time to make it worthwhile and just little enough to leave people wanting more if it's a great race.

NASCAR needs to think about how likely they are to get lightning in Chicago in July. At one point, I saw there was lightning within 16 miles of Buckingham Fountain. It is not a rare event. A huge difference in dealing with lightning in Grant Park is the miles of 4-foot-tall concrete barriers restricting egress. They are not there during other events, such as Lollapalooza. The practical reality is that the fans are inside the track, not outside in a permanent grandstand structure.

Nice show, boys! Dale and TJ are like Peanut butter and Jelly! Y'all work so well together, I'd like to see more of TJ. Dale makes a great point about throwing the stage flag. There are waaaay too many caution laps as it is during these races. But overall I thought the Chicago race was good. This street course layout is proving to be compatible with these cars; it's wide enough, not too technical but still a good test, great views of the city, good racing. I think it should stay on the calendar.

[@tatsjohn9]

I rarely comment on anything, but TJ is very conveniently ignoring or forgetting the fact that Brad clearly hit the wall in front of Daniel on his onboard, which checked both he & Daniel up & is probably what led to Chase even getting in to the back of Daniel so quickly. Nascar cut that part out of their onboard replays, but other replays posted clearly show Brad hitting the wall right before Daniel & Chase's contact.

[@DerrickRG]

You know, these guys aren't clinically online right? They probably haven't seen it, because they have more important stuff to worry about.

1:05:58 Hailie might be the most controversial driver currently mostly due to fan bias- she’s vehemently hated by so money, as strongly loved by others. No in between 1:09:46 Hailie hasn’t been given a good full time situation yet. “Good teams” but not a good situation- like gibbs or hendrick gives drivers good situations; “let’s get this done well” kind of situation. Like Kyle Bush currently is with a ‘good team’ but in my outsider’s view isn’t a good situation. That’s Hailie’s whole fulltime nascar career: “not a good situation.” 1:21:58 is “a good situation”
