I was just searching and found this here...I directed and shot this commercial. I will need to post a proper encoding of it. We shot it 3 weeks after his fathers death...Very tough time for Jr.
Sad commericial. I am not a Dale Jr fan at all but man people are too damn hard on him, he is having a bad season and people jump his shit for diffrent reasons saying he has no talent and such. Junior is a great racecar driver with just some bad luck on the track. Also Junior can make stars on his Nationwide Team ( Look at Brad Keselowski and Martin Truex Jr.) Junior is a big star and he deserves better, he is as good as his Dad if not better but the competion is so good now that it hard to win
@alexdogg93 All drivers have a bad year or two, Dale will come back next year and have a 2006 type of year, where he only wins 1 or 2 races but he'll be consistanly in the top 10 each week, Lance McGrew is a good crew chief who will help the 88 team be a good team next season.
@Americalovesme2008 I think that if he kept Tony Sr. He would have formed a championship team, because 2004 he was awesome, he crumbled after Mikey started crying and wanting a better CC and thus Jr gave it all up. So bring back Tony Sr... We'll see some wins again!
it's people like kyle busch that i really hate.. they come into NASCAR just for the money and push around drivers that have been in NASCAR twice as long as he has, and i REALLY hate is when he pushes around Dale Jr.
If there is a driver out there that is racing for the love of racing and could careless about money, it's Kyle Busch. Your statement is very inaccurate. I really hate retarded people that watch NASCAR for wrecks which is apparently what you are. You know nothing, hell I'm not even a Kyle Busch fan but if you knew anything about NASCAR you would know he is one of the few that would race if he had to pay NASCAR.
He runs the 51 Truck for Billy Ballew for FREE. Why? He loves to race.
i understand that, what i want is for Dale Jr. to get married and have kids so when his kids get older i can still root for an Earnhardt. Even though Jr. will race until the day he dies...
The only reason you do not like kyle busch is because he has a hellava lot more talent than Dale Jr. His father is laughing at him right now because the retard can't make a pit stop, the moron keeps driving by his pits. Poor Eury jr if only he had a decent driver he would still have his job! Teresa Earnhardt is smart to get rid of that stupid dick.
That's funny... last I checked he was about even with Mikie Waltrip in the standings, leaving Dale down in the bottom third of the field of weekly drivers. 564 points out. That's pretty dismal. I think his glory days are over. He's getting old and doesn't have the miracle cars of yesterday. It was fun Dale but I think I'm going back to watching baseball.
Dale Jr. didn't "sell" Dale Earnhardt Inc. He didn't own it. Teresa Earnhardt had the majority share. Jr didn't have enough corporate power in the company to control anything. He was simply a driver with a contract and some good profit sharing in the company. He negotiated his contract and tried to get a bigger say in how he would run his team but failed to make any progress. So he painfully decided to leave DEI and drive for a successful team before he gets too old to win a championship.
@Im18nowletmewatch im not dissin hendrick but they've been on a slump just look at todays race. i hope they improve on their mistakes and i hope jr. has a good season next year
@MRSYCOSQUIRREL69 disagree #48 Johnson has won 4 championships in a row and has been in contention since his arrival # 24 Gordon the living legend has won 4 since 1995 and could have won a few more I think even Rick Hendrick is seeing that Jr doen't have Sr's will to win,living off his name
@bullpuky I don't know much about Nascar as I don't watch it very often. Maybe only 2-3 races of a season when there is nothing else to watch. But doesn't everyone in Nascar drive the same car? I know there is different models, like Chevy, Dodge and all that but doesn't everyone have the engine of the same kind to make it a more even sport? What can make that other team so much better then, than the team he drove for?
@VuDu4000 They're all the same car. 2 official things will make one team better than the other. The driver and tuning. Driver experience has a lot to do with it. With tuning, the main thing teams have control over are things like the valving in the shocks, tire air pressure, spring rate setup in the suspension all of which help the car handle and corner better. The third factor is what a team can get away with that go beyond the rules. Cheating runs the risk of heavy fines but can be worth it.
@bullpuky Yes ofcourse the tuning of the car is what matters most in this case and driver skill. But I believe most of the teams in Nascar is professionals who knows how to tune a car to give it it's max, otherwise they wouldn't be in Nascar would they? But how come J-J can win 5 CS in a row while the others have no chance? Why couldn't DEI give Junior a good car he could win a CS in? I just don't get it how the other team can be better so much better when they have the same conditions.
@VuDu4000 I suspect that much of the "edge" one team has over another comes from three factors. First, engine. You'll never hear about what they do to get the small gains in horsepower. Two, you won't hear about how they bent the rules until they're caught. Three, driver. Personally I think #2 is the largest contributor. Post race inspection can only discover so much unless they break the engine down. I recall many things teams were doing that cost them big time when caught. JJ inlcuded.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Dale did take the belt off, he wanted to get out of the car as fast as possible to congratulate Mikey. He had a history of taking his belt off on the last lap.
but, how could he do it? even if the race has already finished. A mad rookie can come to you @ 200 mph and destroy your life, when you could save your life if your seatbelt was in order. Obviously this doesn't happen always, but can happen.
Take it easy maatu76, don't be so gullable. 4GodlessLiberals is trying to be funny. you might be a redneck ... get it? haha...? nah I didn't think it was funny either.
