Its not like Richard got Goodwrench to sponsor the car and paint it up the same, Austin's schemes look nothing like Dale's. Also agree 100% in your DEI opinion. Think of what Jr would of done to DEI, i mean look what he's done with JR Motorsports

The kids dont wreck, and they know how to drive.

@robr182210 жыл бұрын
Cause thats how it was back in the day, the sport has changed considerably if you havent noticed. Austin wasnt handed anything, the kid has performed. And dont say "he's driving for Richard, anyone can win in those cars" cause Dale & Harvick are the only ones who have actually done well in Cup, and Bowyer & Harvick are the only ones to perform in NNS. Austin has won 2 Championships, he takes care of his car, and is a PR's dream cause he knows how to take care of fans and sponsors. Get over it, Dale is dead, he wanted the sport to move on after he was gone and thats what we are doing. Stop putting the 3 as if there is only one driver, a load of drivers have driven it, and Nascar doesnt retire numbers, so its about time it returned, at least its a kid that was a fan of Dale, respects it, and is in the family, Not like he just threw Juan Pablo in the car and called it good. Also Dale didnt even win his first championship in the 3, he won in the #2, so i guess we better take that away from Brad cause he doesnt deserve to drive Dale's old number. drove the 15 car for a bit too, better retire that too and take it away from Bowyer. Made his debut driving the 96 so that better never race again too . See how the lines get blurred like that. Dillon in the 3 fits, and he's not driving a Black car with Silver trimming, and a white 3 on the door, with GM Goodwrench on the hood, so let Austin do what he's done the rest of his career, preform and succeed.

All he had to do was ask ol Pop Pop... what a shame.. RC said NEVER..but the golden boy asks.. so he'll get it. I was never a fan of Dale, but it seems Childress cant keep his word..he was gonna quit racing, but Dale said keep going if anything happened to him ( before the accident obviously) .. now this

13Naru13 All she said is that as long as its not a totally black car she's fine with it coming back. Dillon's cars have lots of white on one and yellow on the other.

I love still seeing the #3 on the track. It always reminds me of “The Man!” That said, There are still Earnhardts’ racing and they should always get first shot at it. It was very cool to me to see Jeffrey Earnhardt running around in a 3 car. It somehow keeps Dale alive for me.

Austin Dillon is the last person who deserves to drive the #3 car. Hes the total opposite of a dale Earnhardt.

I am one of the few who thinks that the 3 should always run. Maybe not with Dillon in it, but it's a peice of the sport. Drivers have died in other numbers, and they still run. I love that the 3 is back. I hope we, at least, see a throwback to the man in black at Darlington someday. That'd be great.

I understand completely but I want one to remember his legacy and let it live on in the other great drivers
