The post-Daytona 500 blues can hit you hard if you aren't careful, and a little dose of Dirty Mo Media will clear that right up. Welcome back to Dirty Thirty, also known as the most action-packed half hour of your week, and this week is loaded with content from FIVE of our DMM shows - so here we go!

We start off with Dale Jr. discussing one of his favorite topics - how to reduce drag at Daytona. Get them guys back to having to worry about handlin', man! He and TJ discuss the relationship between off-throttle time and seconds saved on pit road. Dale describes exactly what he wants to see happen with cars at plate tracks, but his fix might not be exactly what you'd expect.

Following that, Denny Hamlin discusses the wreck heard round the racing world this weekend, where Justin Allgaier took 100% of the blame. Denny describes how it went down and owns up to being responsible in some sense. Denny masterfully breaks down the moments leading up to The Big One, like only he can.

You know we can't have a week full of hot takes without hearing from the gang at Door Bumper Clear. They tee up and tee off on the approval process for the top-3 series of stock car racing after watching what seemed to be Cleetus McFarland & Natalie Decker get caught up in avoidable wrecks over the weekend. If you like a fired-up Tommy Baldwin, this part is a must listen.

We come out of turn 4 and head to the finish line, where the most viral moment of the week had to be addressed ... did Amy really tell Dale Jr. he should run the Daytona 500 next year? In Bless Your 'Hardt, Dale & Amy talk about how that comment came about, how it caught fire on social, and what the reality really is about Dale making a return to the Great American Race.

That's it for this week, but there's no telling where we might find ourselves next time on Dirty Thirty. See you next time!

Dale?s dipping his toe into the world of sports trading cards? and Amy?s already bracing for a full-blown obsession. The Drink of the Week doesn?t win Dale over (unless it?s extra dirty), and a new slang term making the rounds in their friend group sparks some unexpected self-reflection, and maybe calls a few people out.

They also address the 2027 Daytona 500 rumors and recap their Disney Cruise, complete with a Haunted Mansion bar and a Medusa moment that got a little too real, and a few teenage decisions involving skipped school and questionable judgment that absolutely would not hold up today.

In #AskAmy, they debate the ideal number of nights in Key West, the go-to hangover breakfast, pets their kids will never be allowed to have, and take a trip down memory lane to Dale?s MTV Cribs house.

Dale Earnhardt Jr. gets an in-depth look into the world of professional gaming as he sits down with renowned Madden NFL player Civil. Born Kenny Cox in Michigan, Civil began playing Madden at age 16 and quickly rose to prominence after winning some highly publicized tournaments. His road forward wasn?t clear, though, and for a time, he began working at FedEx while attending college, pursuing a degree in criminal justice. Eventually, he?d pick the game back up and took to teaching other players how to better their game, which launched his social media empire that he operates today.

The interview covers Civil?s path through uncertainty to becoming one of the most well-known gamers on the internet, why he pursued teaching instead of competitive play, and his recent public declaration of his Christian faith.

Speedweek is finally upon us! The NASCAR world is running at full throttle ahead of The Great American Race, and this week's Dirty Thirty is no different. It's another supercharged episode, where you only need 30-mins to catch up on all the action.

Dale Jr. starts us off with his take on racing at the plate tracks, with fuel-saving strategies being the hot topic heading into the Daytona 500. He and TJ go back and forth about ways to reduce drag, the possibility of ditching spoilers, and end up reminiscing about what Daytona used to be all about -- haulin' a**.

Then, speaking of Daytona's glory days, industry-renowned chassis builder Jay Hedgecock joined the Dale Jr. Download's guest episode. He's known for fabricating present-day late models, but once built cars for past greats like Dale Earnhardt and Richard Petty. He and Dale recount the more famous cars he built, like the car The King famously flipped in 1988 down Daytona's frontstretch and the black No. 3 The Intimidator used to rattle Terry Labonte's cage at Bristol.

We close the show out with special guest. Jeff Gordon, who joined Dale Jr. live from Daytona, sharing stories about his relationship with Dale Earnhardt Sr. on and off the track. Plus, a special announcement from Jeff Gluck.

What better way to lead into NASCAR's biggest weekend than Dirty Thirty! We'll see you right back here next week for the next one.

Dale Earnhardt Jr. sits down with a pillar of the short track racing community this week, longtime racer and chassis builder Jay Hedgecock. After growing up in a family with rich NASCAR history and attending the local modified race shops with his father, Jay entered the racing world himself, racing a micro midget that he dug out of his uncle?s junkyard. The work he?d do to get the midget back into racing condition would begin 55 years in the field. He?d receive the education of a lifetime when he happened upon a job in Tex Powell?s shop, after sharpening some drill bits for the automotive legend. Jay had firsthand experience working on NASCAR Cup cars through Tex, and before long, thanks to friend Howard Stewart, he?d find himself behind the wheel of a stock car as well.

 

After spending years building and racing late model sportsman cars, Jay would return to his true love in racing: the modfieds. He?d go on to win multiple championships with the Southern Modified Auto Racing Tour and track titles all over the heavily contested Virginia/North Carolina region. All the while, he continued his car building efforts and went on to build short track machines for Richard Petty and Dale Earnhardt. Today, Jay remains one of the most successful and celebrated car builders in the country, supplying late model stocks to much of the CARS Tour field and NASCAR Weekly champions.

It's beginning to look a lot like RACE SEASON! We are back in the swing of things, which means you have a Dirty Thirty coming your way, where we bring you the best, funniest, and most engaging parts of this week's shows in a supercharged 30-minute episode.

To kick us off, Kelley Earnhardt Miller sits down with Marcus Smith to discuss the highly celebrated decision to swap out the ROVAL this fall for the Charlotte Oval, bringing back the coveted "Charlotte Fall Race" NASCAR fans have so dearly missed. After going over the logistics of the move, the two also discuss the ROVAL's future ... will it be back? Marcus has plenty to say on the topic.

Next up on the docket, Dale & Amy return after a week of Snowmaggedon - and one of them is more excited be out of the house than the other. Dale also describes the bone he has to pick with none other than Gus, the family's Irish Setter, who has developed a particularly annoying habit. You don't want to miss this Dale Sr.-esque rant from Jr.

Speaking of the Intimidator, we finish off with part of Dale's interview with longtime engine builder for RCR and the black No. 3, Danny Lawrence. This episode had been long-awaited and is worth a full listen. Still, we had to highlight the moment when Danny tells tales of how the field was looking for any reason to catch the Goodwrench team cheating, but because they never did, they could never catch them - in the rulebook or on the track. Relive the magic of what made the Man In Black so fast in this all-time guest show moment.

That's all for now! We hope you enjoyed it, and we will see you next time on Dirty Thirty.

Snowmageddon hit North Carolina hard last weekend, and Amy is ready for the snow to go away, while Dale is enjoying everything being closed. Meanwhile, their dog Gus isn?t quite sure how to navigate walking on ice. Thanks to their ?Drink of the Week?, Dale learned what ?Galentines Day? is.

Dale and Amy?s donkeys got loose during the storm, and Dale had to play cowboy to corral them, which had Amy turned on. As if they didn?t have enough drama around animals, Amy wrecked her car trying to catch a cat.

Plus, apparently, Dale treats Chat GPT like it?s his friend and asks some odd things.

And in #AskAmy, they discuss the outfits worn at the Grammys, Dale at the MTV awards and Jessica Simpson?s dream about Dale.

As Dale Earnhardt Jr. begins a new season of the Download, he welcomes longtime Richard Childress Racing employee Danny Lawrence into the studio for an in-depth look at the past. Having recently celebrated his 40th anniversary with RCR, Danny currently holds the post as vice president of the team?s technical alliances and director of their O?Reilly Auto Parts Series program. He first came into the organization assisting his friend Bobby Moody in the body shop, and before long, he was hired full-time, assisting Lou LaRosa in the engine department. Danny explains that when the team expanded to a two-car operation in the late 90s, Dale Earnhardt Sr. expressed that he wanted his own, separate engine shop. Danny was promoted to Chief Engine Builder in 1998, and his first attempt in the position was the historic Daytona 500 win. 

Danny had a unique perspective on Dale Sr. and is full of incredible stories and firsthand accounts about the Intimidator. He shares anecdotes about Dale?s attention to detail and knowledge of a racecar. Dale?s leadership drove the RCR team to operate at the same meticulous level, which made them virtually unbeatable in the late 80s/early 90s. The interview also talks about RCR?s current-day O?Reilly Auto Parts team, and how much of the team?s preparation and approach hasn?t changed over the years.

No team in NASCAR has achieved the same level of success as Hendrick Motorsports. In this DJD Classic, which originally aired 9/23/19, Dale Earnhardt Jr. and his former boss, Rick Hendrick, sit down for an in-depth discussion about Rick's origins in motorsports, how he built up NASCAR's winningest team, and his plans for sustaining excellence in the future. Hear Rick recount the famous rental car ride between Dale Earnhardt and Geoff Bodine that was orchestrated by Mr. Bill France himself. Plus, what did Kenny Schrader do with Dale Jr. that made Dale Sr. mad enough to not speak with Schrader for a full year? The stories are plenty, and the laughs are hearty - nobody in NASCAR can replicate the subdued humor of Mr. H.

Dale Earnhardt and Cale Yarborough surely won?t be exchanging Christmas cards in 1980. The three-time champion has had quite enough of the overzealous sophomore from Kannapolis, but as the season comes to a close, he continues to stand in the way of crown number four for Cale and the Junior Johnson team. Dale and the Osterlund team are going to have a difficult day in Atlanta, and his late race effort to gain his lap back will bring his rivalry with Cale to its absolute breaking point. The two exchange blows in the media, and the points margin stands at 29 as they head to Ontario, California for the season finale. 

Before making the trip out west, Dale is going to ink a sponsorship deal that he will become synonymous with for most of the 1980s: Wrangler Jeans. With a major brand behind him and his future secured in a five-year deal with Osterlund, the sophomore needs to go into the last race of the season and perform. Wouldn't you know it, Dale and Cale lock up the front row for the race at Ontario, and the dash for the 1980 championship is on. Will it be four-time championship glory for Cale, or can Dale Earnhardt become the first driver in NASCAR history to win a championship in his sophomore season after being crowned Rookie of the Year?

Dale Earnhardt has been leading the NASCAR Cup season points for most of 1980, but it hasn?t been smooth sailing. In fact, stock car legends Richard Petty, Bobby Allison, and Cale Yarborough have all been within striking distance at one point or another, but attrition has kept the field even. Engine failures, crashes, injuries, and team disharmony have plagued everyone in the Cup garage, and it appears the 1980 crown will come down to whoever can manage the chaos best. And thanks to Jake Elder?s untimely departure, Dale has to depend on a young, inexperienced, newly promoted Doug Richert to help keep things on track.

As the season wages on, the championship contest really comes down to two: Dale and Cale. The two can?t stop finding each other on track, and things are getting tense. This will be Dale?s first real taste at a Cup series rivalry, and neither driver is willing to back down. Dale is going to again pick up back-to-back wins, including a triumphant hometown victory in Charlotte, but a disastrous showing in Rockingham allows Cale to close in as the season winds to a close.

Imagine being a sophomore, leading the NASCAR points with Richard Petty, Darrell Waltrip and Cale Yarborough breathing down your neck. That was Dale Earnhardt?s reality in May of 1980. He and the Osterlund Team are fresh off back-to-back wins in hot pursuit of more trophies, but the competition is heating up. The young outfit gets a lesson in stock car excellence from Buddy Baker and Waddell Wilson, as Dale has a rematch with the Gray Ghost at Talladega. After a quiet race at Nashville and an engine failure at Dover, things begin boiling over in the 2-car?s garage.

As the Cup Series returns home for World 600 weekend, there was a tension you could cut with a knife between team management and legendary crew chief Jake Elder. The decision is made to turn their focus away from their Cup program to run the Mello Yello 300 Late Model Sportsman race, and Jake declares he?s had enough. To make matters worse, the weekend proves disastrous when a cut tire dashes Dale?s hopes of a hometown victory and slashes his points lead in half. The next day, Dale and the Osterlund team get a harsh reminder of why they call Jake Elder: ?Suitcase?.

It?s February of 1980, and Dale Earnhardt is hungry to return to victory lane. The Osterlund-2 car hasn't brought home a win since David Pearson filled in for Dale at the Southern 500 the previous year. Plus, with a new contract and sponsorship comes expectations, so needless to say, he?s eager to hold up his end of the bargain. Thankfully, he won?t have to wait long, as he overcomes adversity at Atlanta for his first speedway win and follows it up with a repeat at Bristol. He quickly goes from a potential flash-in-the-pan, one-time winner to etching his name into the NASCAR history books.

But racing is a humbling sport, and his jubilation won?t last long. More engine problems and a lack of speed would relegate him back to the middle of the pack, and that pressure to perform would build up again. Unfortunately, this time, the pressure pushes Dale to make a blunderous mistake on the opening lap of the spring Martinsville event, and he has a run-in with a fella you never want to cross: King Richard Petty.

With the scene set, it?s off to the races in 1980. The NASCAR Cup Series heads out to Riverside, California, to begin the season, and sophomore Dale Earnhardt is hoping to improve his road course performance. He will, in fact, finish runner-up to Darrell Waltrip, who, after a narrow loss in the 1979 points race, is regarded as a championship favorite for this year. Dale caps his successful West Coast trip off with a new season sponsor and a contract extension with Rod Osterlund, and he?s understandably feeling at the top of his game.

He rolls that confidence into Daytona Beach, where he shows his first glimpses of supernatural ability on the superspeedway high banks. He makes a last lap pass on the outside of Darrell Waltrip to pick up his first victory at the track, the Busch Clash. But when all the marbles are on the line in the Daytona 500, he has to go toe to toe with Buddy Baker and the fastest stock car in the country: Waddell Wilson?s Gray Ghost.

Another year, another scrapbook. Dale Earnhardt Jr. is back on his quest to learn the origins of his father?s legendary NASCAR career, and in this season of Becoming Earnhardt, he is unpacking the 1980 season. With the help of some family scrapbooks and his personal collection of racing artifacts, Dale Jr. is seeking to gain a deeper understanding of who Dale Earnhardt was before his seven championships and numerous wins.

In the first episode of this season, we set the scene of 1980, both in the world of motorsports and the world at large. The star of our story, Dale Earnhardt, is fresh off winning the NASCAR Cup Rookie of the Year in 1979, ready to take on the mainstays of stock car racing with his Osterlund Racing crew. His path to stardom goes through the legends of the day, such as Richard Petty, Cale Yarborough, and David Pearson, but with veteran crew chief Jake Elder atop the pit box, Dale is feeling confident in his chances. The goal is a season championship ring, but before he can get there, he will have to weather the storms of competition, attrition, and personality.

The dust has settled on the greatest NASCAR Cup season in history, and it?s time to recap all that we?ve learned about 1979. Dale Earnhardt Jr. invites some of the guests from BECOMING EARNHARDT for a roundtable discussion to recount all that we?ve learned and conclude some of our favorite characters ? stories. Dale?s aunts, Cathy Watkins and Kaye Snipes, as well as Osterlund Racing crew member Doug Richert, return as first-hand character witnesses who helped bring the story of 1979 to life.

The chat once again sets the dial back to the beginning of 1979 and views Dale Earnhardt through the eyes of his family, as he?s getting ready to embark on the biggest opportunity in his young racing career. It also dissects complicated characters like Jake Elder and the team dynamic at Osterlund Racing. They dive into the significance of the NASCAR Cup Rookie of the Year in 1979 and just how close things got in the race between Dale and Joe Millikan. Finally, some new details are revealed about the severity of Dale?s injury at Pocono and his lengthy hospital stay and time out of the driver?s seat.

After 27 grueling weeks, it comes down to the final four races. Somehow, after all the roster changes, crashes, fights and calamity, there are two tight points races to be decided. As the NASCAR Cup contingent prepares for the last stretch, the season points championship and the Rookie of the Year battles have never been closer. 

Dale Earnhardt surely had the rookie crown locked up after his stunning victory at Bristol in April, but the trusty DeWitt team and their unproven chauffeur Joe Millikan have kept him in sight. After Dale?s disastrous crash and time on the sideline, Millikan took full advantage and strung together a series of top-10 finishes to take over the top spot in the standings.

In the Grand National points race, Darrell Waltrip jumped out to an early lead and never looked back for most of the season. But after a catastrophic sequence of engine failures and crashes, the DiGard team seems to have begun to crumble under the pressure of winning their first season championship. Even worse, the King Richard Petty has been steadily getting closer in the rearview mirror, and he has his sights set on an unprecedented seventh Cup crown. 

Join us as we go down to the wire in the greatest NASCAR Cup season in history. We?ll unpack the final four events: North Wilkesboro, Rockingham, Atlanta and Ontario. By the end of it, we will have decided two incredible points contests, with winners who represent NASCAR?s past and future.

As we roll into the CRC Chemicals 500 at Dover Downs International Speedway, our hero Dale Earnhardt has settled back into his role as driver of the Osterlund Racing number 2. However, six weeks out of the action has compromised his stamina, and his first race back the prior week in Richmond saw him seeking out assistance from fellow racer Lennie Pond. 500 miles at the challenging, high-banked one-mile oval in Delaware is demanding enough for a healthy driver, but for someone who is still mending two broken collarbones it?s unthinkable. Then again, that?s the Dale Earnhardt we?ve all come to know so well: never backing down from any challenge.

In episode seven of Becoming Earnhardt, we deep dive into races 25 through 27 of the 1979 NASCAR Cup season. Three 500-mile contests at three of the most demanding speedways on the circuit: Dover Downs, Martinsville and Charlotte. With the Rookie of the Year battle at stake thanks to the continuous, consistent performance of Joe Milllikan, Dale Earnhardt is prepared to risk further injury to his already weakened body to claim the title sure to be the ticket to a bright future in the top ranks of stock car racing.

It was a rookie season of the ages, until it wasn?t. A cut tire and Pocono?s unforgiving steel boiler-plate walls left Dale Earnhardt with two broken collarbones and an open-ended timeframe for recovery. The NASCAR Cup circuit would then roll on as he began to mend in an East Stroudsburg, PA hospital. The progress he made in the stock car ranks and his grip on the 1979 Rookie of the Year award would be tested as his closest competitors in the freshman race would continue onward. Even worse, his own ride and future could be in jeopardy, as the Osterlund Racing team makes a call to one of the greatest drivers in history to fill-in during the interim. 

On this episode of Becoming Earnhardt, our exploration of the 1979 NASCAR Cup season unpacks races 20 through 24. Our main character will wrestle with watching from the sidelines as his blue and yellow number-2 gets driven by a NASCAR legend at some of his favorite tracks. The Cup contingent returns to Talladega, Michigan, Bristol and Darlington. When the Osterlund crew finds victory lane without him, Dale makes a miraculous return to the driver?s seat, defying his doctors, the press and the rest of the NASCAR garage.

It?s June of 1979 and 28-year-old Dale Earnhardt is feeling as confident as ever. With a notch in the win column and top five finishes in the last three races, the rookie seems to have found his place amongst the stock car racing elite. As episode five of Becoming Earnhardt opens, the NASCAR Cup circuit travels to the Lone Star State to take on the daunting Texas World Speedway. Dale would once again race his way into the spotlight, nipping at the heels of eventual race winner Darrell Waltrip before a mechanical failure sent him into the wall and made him settle for a 12th-place finish. But the impressive showing had Ol? DW once again admitting in victory lane, ?when all the seasoned veterans retire, it?ll be Dale Earnhardt I?ll have to contend with.?

It?s during this episode that the NASCAR garage gets its first glimpse at the on-track aggression that would eventually become ?The Intimidator?. In a late race hustle at Michigan International, Dale makes a daring move that sends many top contenders scrambling, bringing about the ire of the very drivers who had been singing his praises. And while this constructive feedback from his mentors may have had him reconsidering his standing in the Cup ranks, it didn?t seem to slow him down any. As the Cup schedule hits the Poconos and Dale takes on the Tricky Triangle for the first time in his career, he is dealt a turn of events that will leave his dreams of being a NASCAR Champion in doubt.

Basking in the glory of his first NASCAR Cup victory, rookie Dale Earnhardt finds himself in the conversation of the top talents in the garage area. Not only has he put the heat on the rest of the rookie class with his triumph, but he?s put stock car racing?s veterans on notice: the kid from Kannapolis is the real deal. But following up his win would be no easy task, as the next event on the Cup schedule would take him to the track deemed Too Tough To Tame, and the Lady in Black had many hard lessons to teach an overconfident freshman. 

After Darlington and his first trip to the Paperclip, Dale and the rest of the NASCAR contingent take on a grueling month of May, which includes the fastest race weekend to date at Talladega, a brutal 500-lapper at Dover and the longest contest in stock car racing, the World 600. Join us on this episode of Becoming Earnhardt as we unpack races 8 through 13 of the greatest NASCAR season ever, 1979. Our main character has found the spotlight, but it will be tested by not only some of the toughest events on the calendar but a toe-to-toe battle with none other than the King of NASCAR himself.

In the aftermath of the 1979 Daytona 500, NASCAR found itself on an unimaginable trajectory to becoming the biggest form of motorsport in the country. Some 16-million viewers tuned in to watch the flag-to-flag coverage on CBS, and having witnessed the fight, the King and the rest of the action, they were hungry for more. The result was speedway box offices being flooded with ticket requests, and the largest crowds that had ever assembled to take in stock car racing. Rockingham, Richmond, Atlanta, North Wilkesboro and Bristol were next on the schedule to take a turn at entertaining the masses. And luckily, NASCAR had plenty of talent in the garage ready to seize the spotlight.

One of these talents is the 28-year-old from Kannapolis, Dale Earnhardt. Dale established himself as the rising star to watch during his daring, yet calculated performance on the Daytona highbanks. With the press, fans and racing veterans all singing his praises, he seemed destined to find victory lane. But when would that happen? On this episode of Becoming Earnhardt, we tell the tale of the next five races of the 1979 season and explain how a 500-lap showdown at a bullring nestled in Thunder Valley would propel Dale towards super stardom.

It?s January of 1979, and 28-year-old Dale Earnhardt is ready to embark on the greatest challenge he?s faced in his young career to date: a full season in the NASCAR Cup Series. As the teams and haulers head west to California to kick things off, we zero in on the blue-and-yellow Osterlund Racing No. 2, which Dale will chauffeur for the first time on a road course. After a promising afternoon, his overzealousness gets the best of him, and the Rookie of the Year spotlight is shifted to another promising newcomer.

Once the Los Angeles skyline is behind them, the teams and drivers travel back east, this time on a collision course with history. Thanks to the recent split in the American championship car ranks, the motorsports world was ripe for a new leader. NASCAR had just the bill of excitement to make its case to be a household name in entertainment: Daytona Speedweeks. But little did anyone know what the 1979 rendition of the Great American Race had in store for the world, and how a network television deal, a fight, and the return of NASCAR?s King would win over a new generation of stock car fans.

In 1979, Dale Earnhardt scored the biggest opportunity of his budding career to run in the NASCAR Cup Series full-time for upcoming car owner Rod Osterlund. While there are remnants of that season?s events preserved through television and radio broadcasts, as well as other memorabilia, Dale?s older sister Kaye did what any supportive sibling in the 70s would do: she started scrapbooking. Within these scrapbook pages lie a comprehensive picture of what the 1979 NASCAR season was like from the perspective of the rookie Kannapolis driver. Decades later, it was these very scrapbooks that inspired Dale Earnhardt Jr. to create a new podcast series documenting the monumental season and his father?s rapid, meteoric rise to stock car stardom.

In episode one of Becoming Earnhardt, listeners will gain a better understanding of what the world was like in 1979, not only in motorsports but the world as a whole. The landscape of NASCAR in the late ?70s is unpacked, and the cast of characters who would set out to compete for the season crown of ?79 are introduced. We also learn how 28-year-old Dale Earnhardt drove his way through the dirt short track ranks of the Charlotte area to land one of the most coveted opportunities in the NASCAR Cup garage, chauffeuring the number-2 blue and yellow stock cars for Osterlund Racing.

When Dale Earnhardt Jr. had his longtime friend and crew member Kevin ?Two Beers? Pennell on the Download last time, their conversation was so engrossing that he had to come back for more. They pick up where they left off, in Dale Jr.?s rookie season in the famed Bud 8 car. They recall some choice encounters with Dale Sr., including a wreck at Bristol and their Cup debut at Martinsville, where Dale Jr. couldn?t get out of the way quickly enough. Dale and Kevin relive their thrilling victory in the 2000 All-Star race, where some key decision-making by Tony Eury Jr. helped put them in contention. The 2001 Daytona 500 is also discussed, with both men sharing their respective experiences of the post-race events after Dale Sr.?s tragic accident. 

Dale and Kevin talk about some ?ingenuity? and ?innovation? that was taking place in the shop and on pit road to help close the gap on the more established Cup teams. They rehash the highs and lows of the 2001 season and their hot streak at Daytona and Talladega, which led up to the winning of the 2004 Daytona 500. Dale asks Kevin for his perspective on the team switch at Dale Earnhardt Inc., which stemmed from a falling out with Eury Jr. They also chat about Dale and Eury Jr. leaving for Hendrick Motorsports, and Kevin?s decision to stay loyal to DEI. The interview goes on to cover the whirlwind years of DEI, which saw it get absorbed by Ginn Racing, the acquisition by Tony Stewart, and the inception of Stewart Haas Racing and its eventual closure at the end of the 2024 season.

Perhaps no other driver in NASCAR history earned a similar off-track relationship with Dale Earnhardt as Rusty Wallace.  Unsurprisingly, it was Rusty's gritty racing style that garnered that admiration, and while Dale Sr. and Rusty stayed fierce racing rivals, they also spent many years vacationing together. In this episode of DJD Classics, which originally aired 3/25/2019, hear all about Rusty's rise to the top of the racing ranks, from his initial big break to capping off a Hall of Fame career. Rusty recounts his decision to retire early and pursue another passion of his - calling races on TV and MRN.
