I thought I'd miss Dale Jr driving more than I do and I was and am upset about everything that happened, but he made the right decision for sure and him being in the booth and so involved with the sport is amazing. He loves racing so much and there's no way he can understand just how important he is to the sport. The importance of his continued involvement with the sport cannot be overstated. To me and a large percentage of fans, he is the voice and face of Nascar. As long as he remains in broadcasting and ownership, and all the things he does to better the sport, then all is well.
