Dale Jr. Download: Dale Jr. Behind the Wheel at Darlington

[@ferjam7489]

It's so cool and humbling, for lack of a better term, to listen and watch this guy, who in many peoples minds, including mine, is bigger than life. And then jump back in his podcast studio and act like any other person. Because he is. You're the man Dale.

[@davidsargent8374]

Dale maybe the most relatable athlete/celebrity I’ve ever listen to.

[@cooperspence3514]

Dale you may not remember me but in 2015 (I was 11) in Charlotte the race ended, you were coming off the track and you stopped the golf cart and signed my program. I never said thank u. So, Thank you!

[@spooge33]

I would not doubt it.

[@larrywt656]

Glad to see Junior had so much fun driving in a race again. It was definitely a fun race to watch.

[@leasoundslikelee]

Dale, win or lose the fans love who you are. There is a reason you have been the most popular driver so often. You have such a great attitude about things. We love it that you are a real guy that isn't afraid to be honest about your feelings. It's actually quite refreshing. Don't ever change!!

[@JackSmithjr]

Dale JR thank you for your years of racing Man U mean a lot to the sport

[@kevinbodman1011]

Its has to be tuff for a racer not to race.I have a ton of respect for Dale Jr.

[@willywilson1206]

Riiight.

[@rickylong2570]

Respect is wat he has earned and is honored thru his sport

[@88fanforlife]

Listening to Jr talk about every part of his career since he retired made me even more of a fan of his than before

[@mjdoug44]

Thanks Jr for your humble and honesty, dude I freaking love these podcasts!!! I love the interactions with the fans and the other drivers!! I thank the good Lord that you and your family was safe in the plane accident... The good Lord had his hand on ya'll..... Keep on doing what your doing!!! We love ya brother!!!

[@stevebirchall35]

It was great to see JR in a race car again and finishing 6th after not being in a car in a year is something to be proud of especially in the current Xfinity field.A lot of good young racers and at Darlington good job bro.🏁

[@fortswinwars5330]

Congrats Dale!! It’s always a pleasure to watch/listen to you behind the wheel.

[@matthewdespiegelaere8456]

I appreciate your podcast man, as a parent and father, you are one of the few who always interest me, it's never about yourself it's always the friends family around you. Always working to strive for the better. "Bald Eagles Brother!"

I'm not even a nascar fan but enjoy this podcast. Dale jr has a real talent for podcasting.

James Cheff welcome to the nascar world. Whether you just listen to podcasts or you get more into it you are more than welcome 🤙🏻🏁

Junior still has It. What a Pro he really is still. BAD ASS. I really love these weekly pod cast of Junior World.

[@brianmoran5705]

Thank you for your Lame opinion.

[@cotywells8578]

I was at that race had a blast loved to get to watch Dale JR race again.

[@benrizzo2413]

It's awesome to see Dale to enjoy racing!!! Can tell a story to describe his day is just the best!!!

[@stevebirchall35]

Jr is the most humble and honest racer I ever seen and IMHO he was the best running the high line right up on the fence.

[@chaserchaserspeedracer]

Man Dale thanks for being yourself. Your humbleness is so appreciated more now than any of us fans ever would of thought. I've seen all your wins at texas In your bud car years. Hell I remember the blue AC Delco years. You wear your heart on your sleeve and still shine. Damn walking racing legend you are Sir. I don't give a damn then or now what my dad said about ya..

[@wilson4328]

Dale, your sincerity is very evident. We know you don't even have it in you to "work the crowd." You are the man. God Bless. P.S. Get Kyle on this podcast! Better yet, get Samantha!

[@topangachronic9463]

He has had Kyle on before. It was a good one check it out

[@garylindsey5174]

Kyle yeah Samantha ha ha ha

[@tommyfrombama4834]

I don't know if Dale reads these comments, but I just want to say I really miss seeing you race man. I was a Dale Earnhardt fan growing up (I am the same age as you). It was Earnhardt or nobody for me. If he crashed and had no chance to win, I turned the damn channel. lol. I remember when you started running for him in Busch. I was a fan of anyone driving the 3. It was like an extension of Dale even if he wasn't in the car. I became a fan of Dale Earnhardt Jr. the man rather than Dale Jr. the driver of the 3 as I watched your career develop. I knew you were a bad ass driver for sure when you won at the Glen. You literally beat one of the best to wheel a car at that place and I was then a fan for life. You continued to grow as a driver, but even more so as a person and it is who you are as a man that is what truly makes you special to your fans. I hope you will do a few more races a year in the future, as long as your family is cool with it and you are enjoying it. Also, in the future, could you talk about that win over Ron Fellows at Watkins Glen and what that meant at the time? Really enjoy the podcast, keep up the great content!

[@kevinbodman1011]

Who did he beat at the Glenn?Sorry I don't remember

[@kevinbodman1011]

RonFellows.Your right he is definitely one of the best

[@tommyfrombama4834]

Yeah, Ron Fellows. That was really impressive at that time. Fellows was a great road racer, and was brought in to win that race and he would have but Junior passed him late and then held him off. It was awesome.

[@trenawawrzyniak4397]

Jr. Thanks for the great race. First race all year that I watched the whole race start to finish and that's cause you were behind the wheel. The look on your face was priceless , you were just pure happy. If you need seat time before your next year's race, giving ride alongs to your fans that's priceless but I think you should have a contest n you need to pick a male n female winner to give ride alongs to. As your fan since you took your two championships , The happy,joy look you had, your humble attitude is why we love you n support you. You've made your daddy proud. n I mean by the man you are not by how many trophies you have.

[@StraightTruckinSnowman]

Awesome seeing Jr back on the track would've been awesome if he won

[@josephvalentjr7677]

Hey. Dale I completely understand what you go threw I drove Tractor Trailer morning oversized loads and Large cranes plus assembling them than Spinal cord injuries unable to drive anymore not being able to do something you truly loved and still have the mental capacity to do it is extremely hard But you have done a Supper Job Doing what you do Best Thanks your podcasts are a new chapter in your love for what you did and you are Doing a Champion Job Doing it THANKS God Bless you and the Earnhardt Family

[@jamesboone7251]

That race had more fans than any race this season. That shows how much you are loved and missed.

[@mikecheckmate7577]

I was there! It was a great to see Dale compete. He made up five or six spots in 12 laps and continued to climb the whole race. The venue on the other hand could use a lot of help.

[@papabear9498]

You handled everything very well It was a pleasure to watch-Inspirational

[@andermac1]

You have it Dale, you've always had it. You made your Dad proud! People know you're special soul. We would follow you if you raced lawnmowers. Do what feels good and makes your wife Happy! You did good son!

yup . . . i teared up . lol when u got out and said what you did . . . thank you .

[@jasonrobbins7143]

That was a good crowd of fans... But go back to the early 2000's when Jr. was winning Talladega all the time, the whole stadium going nuts with all the fans dressed in red.... Or when he won the pepsi 400 in 2001 the 2nd running of the Daytona that yr after Sr. had passed away & hugging Waltrip on top of the car... I don't think fans have ever been as happy or cheered for any racer more than they did Jr. during those times.

[@johnsdad092009]

Loved to see you run again but mostly gald you had fun. Miss cheering for you. Thank you so much.

[@charlescompton4495]

OK, I was a bricklayer and really enjoyed my trade. I was working with my son which was another big plus! During the winter of 2001-2002 we had to take a week off due to weather. Back to work I noticed my back was bothering me and after a couple of days I couldn't get out of a reclining chair. 5 months later I had surgery and 5 more months was OKed to go back to work. From that time on I could only work 2 hours a day! Now I have a lot of time on my hands because not many people would hire me for two hours a day. But, I have some very interesting hobbies and enjoy life with family and our church family. There is more to life than bricklaying! I wish you well for your future with your wife and 6 children (well, you never know). The order of God, family, friends and country works for me and I hope for you as well as all in our great country! Greg

[@charlescompton4495]

@Elite Soulfly I guess what I wanted to say with a flurry of words (sorry about that) is that I have found many other "things" to do that don't require much strain on the back. Thanks, Greg.

between this podcast and iRacing I feel nascar is due for a come back!! im 32 yrs old. Rock my Sr. 3 on my truck just like my dad did. Shout out to Martin on the tech side of the Jr org!!

[@johnharding91]

I'm Joe Public. Glad you were real with expectations and how you can't always just expect to jump in and have the car drive well because of the variables. I guess I expected you to be able just jump in and drive anything and do well. We really enjoyed watching you with my son who is a huge fan of you and your Dad but man it was fun watching you. Great Job!

[@midwestfishing6]

Dale Jr IN FIRST PLACE 🏁

[@king0cans]

This was a great conversation.

[@hurrycanedave]

I went to the race. Everyone there wasnt pulling for their usual driver. This race they were pulling for jr.. every time you made a pass they went crazy, hell they even cheered when you passed lap cars. I live 15 minutes from the track and have been to Darlington so many times that I dont go much more. I went to that race to see you drive once more. It was great.

[@howabouthetruth2157]

Wow...........a 2nd top-5 finish in only 2 races after retiring. Way to go Dale!!!

At Indy, the fan ride, two-seat IndyCar, the rear wing fell off down mainstetch at speed with a fan onboard! Had to spin entering turn one. Kept it off the wall. Stopped in front of us. The fan got a standing ovation. Best $400 he ever spent!

[@lifewithlani2637]

Watching from the Philippines. Great podcast. You have the best NASCAR-related podcast/talk show by far. Jr., you are a humble guy, a person that I could hang out with, and a great family man. I have to say, under full disclosure, that I was not a fan when you were driving because I am a Ford guy but I enjoy your work in the booth as well your podcast.

Hey Dale I love the podcast

[@SithRacer66]

Jr. I wonder if you know, that we as fans would have been happy if you went out there and finished 25th. Obviously not a desirable finish if that happened, but it's just so great seeing you on the track again and amazing to see you finish in the top five despite not racing for a year. It's really just a testament to your talent which to us was never in doubt.

Thanks Jr.

[@cc2450]

I'm not sure Dale realizes how much influence he has on our sport we love so much. To come back and race at grass roots Darlington spoke volumes. I mean at one time I think Darlington was in trouble of being lost all together. I think they need to go back to twice a year. I do wish Dale was more on board with KB about the challenges of this new aero package and less hp. Going by his commentary though I think he likes the racing now. Idk.

[@jeromemedlin4269]

Dale jr. You are number two and best racing next to your dad

[@JOEHOVA]

I think you would get more views if you played the whole podcast on KZbin. I know you guys are trying to make this profitable but selfishly I would love to watch the whole thing like I watch Joe Rogan. Great job DALE! As a fan I would be happy with any finish. I just love to watch you run.

I’ve never followed nascar and idk hardly anything about it. But after listening to these podcasts I’ve become way more interested. I would love to hear more about the technical aspects of driving, drafting, and the sweet science of racing. I’m surprised at how little there is on the cars and what makes some cats faster than others. Usually we just hear “I had a fast car” or “my car was set up was perfect”... I want to know why? What made a car faster in that race or slower?

The best part of this podcast was the fact that even junior doesn’t have a membership for the athletic

[@davedennis6042]

"The general public doesn't know". The best thing said in this video. It's ludicrous to think you are going to get in a car beside Dale Jr and go 200 mph around the track. It really doesn't work that way. There have been people who were sort of disappointed when they didn't get the 200mph ride. The idea is to experience the sound and feel of the car. Not necessarily the speed. If you want speed, fly to some place and experience 600mph.

[@jamesyers1975]

Man JR., the 40s are hard on the eyesight. I was born in 75 and find myself having to wear reading glasses while looking at my phone or tablet. I finally broke down and got an Apple Watch. Ugh, have a hard time seeing it without my reading glasses. Lol. I have safety glasses with bifocals for work so that helps. Lol.

Jr. I will give anything If you race one more time at either Daytona or Talladega... I watched the Darlington race just because you were competing in it... But If you raced at Daytona or Talladega next yr I would be very appreciative. Nothing like an Earnhardt racing at Daytona or Talladega.
