Dale Earnhardt Jr Confesses Being Forced to Change
Although the race at North Wilkesboro Speedway, finished on a good note, without any major issues on the track, one incident that has captivated the attention of the whole of NASCAR was Bubba Wallace being subjected to derogatory remarks. The team heard the message on the team radio, “Go back to where you came from you a******. You’re not wanted in NASCAR.” This was after someone had infiltrated the #23 team’s radio.
This incident has enraged the fans of NASCAR, while also leading the governing body to launch a full-fledged investigation to find the guilty party.
This incident led the co-owner of JR Motorsports to also reveal his stance on the incident. While conversing with his co-host Mike Davis, the veteran driver gave an overview of the race, “Bubba Wallace, he had just finished second. He‘s proud of it, of course, everybody didn’t like getting their b*tt kicked by Kyle Larson and Bubba flips the bird to the TV screen, during his interview. I suppose I didn’t see it, but I saw it on social media.”

He also stated, “Some fans had gotten on his radio at the end of the race. And we’re raising hell and seeing it’s pretty bad s***. And so I thought that was bad and I remember back in the day, people we used to on our radios and say some pretty stupid things.”

However, Junior also considered the fact, “But I’ve always felt like, that we…this isn’t going to be popular among our fans because they love the access. But when I started driving race cars our radio frequency was a, it was a private conversation. There weren’t scanners. Fans in the stands might have… there might have been a few fans that understood the technology enough to be able to have a scanner in their hand, but there were so few. The conversation on the radio was you and the team.”
“You said anything you wanted, and you didn’t have to be secret about your decisions. Open communication, everything was you know talked about, whatever was going on. And I was in. I was around the sport for long enough to where it completely developed from that. Which I know that’s probably hard for the people to write their brains around.”
Nevertheless, the veteran also heaved his displeasure. “When I was a rookie, when I was racing in the Xfinity series, not many people were listening to your radio. And then scanners became more popular, then you could rent a scanner.”

Dale Earnhardt Jr. Ended Up on the Wrong Side of the Law, charged with making trouble with two policemen
Dale Earnhardt Jr. Ended Up on the Wrong Side of the Law, charged with making trouble with two policemen
NASCAR icon Dale Earnhardt Jr. and 2023 Cup Series champion Ryan Blaney were recently on “The Kelly Clarkson Show” and talked about the Netflix special NASCAR: Full Speed among other things. During their conversation, Dale Jr. opened up about his traffic violations and revealed the interesting encounters that he had with 4 different police officers.
He took a trip down memory lane to remember how he got his first speeding ticket and quipped that he had received not one, but four tickets between the ages of 16 and 18. He told Clarkson, “I had a few issues in the first two years of having my license, from 16 to 18. I got four tickets, and the funny thing about it is, is that it was four different officers who told me they all gave my dad his first ticket, so I don’t know how that is possible.”
Dale Jr.’s father Dale Earnhardt was one of the biggest names in stock car racing since its advent in the 20th century. While it is natural for anyone to be known as having interacted with the legend, Dale Jr. can’t quite put a finger on how four different officers could have given him his first ticket. However, he did have a more important lesson to take away from the tickets he got
“I learned my lesson,” he affirmed. “I haven’t had any problems since then.” Dale Jr. is one of the executive producers of Full Speed. The docuseries has been very well received by drivers and fans since its premiere last month.

The instantaneous impact that Full Speed has been having on NASCAR
During the last race weekend, several drivers voiced their support for the Netflix docuseries and said that it was helping the sport generate new fans. One of the series main characters, Denny Hamlin said, “I thought it was a very good introduction for new fans. Because they also were kind of teaching you some 101 stuff, like, here’s how this works.”
Xfinity Series racer and Live Fast Motorsports co-owner B.J. McLeod compared it to the Hollywood hit Days of Thunder and mentioned that it had the best potential since the movie to attract new fans. He said, “It’s something that people should see, and I think that it was an unbelievable opportunity for NASCAR to have that on Netflix.”
The docuseries chronicled the 2023 NASCAR Cup Series playoff run and featured others including Ryan Blaney, Denny Hamlin, William Byron, Ross Chastain, and Dale Jr., himself.

Chase Elliott’s Crew Chief Publicly Exposes Golden Boy’s Fatal Error
With 480 pts. and 19th rank in the 2023 Cup Series standings, Chase Elliott’s struggle to enter playoffs remains the same. However, in a jaw-dropping revelation from Hendrick Motorsports, a hilarious game of memory between Chase Elliott and Alan Gustafson has unveiled a side of the No. 9 Chevy that fans could never have imagined.
Picture this: Daytona’s sunny day and the racing enthusiasm are palpable. Amid the COVID-tinged atmosphere, in the fateful year of 2020, Chase Elliott finds himself facing a curious predicament. The stakes are high as he and Alan Gustafson gear up for a race day challenge. The challenge seems simple: “What must Chase have on race day?”
What must Chase have on race day, HMS crew chief indulges in a funny banter
During the HMS fun game, Driver and Crew Chief Challange between the Hendrick Motorsports crew chief and the NO. 9. Chevy, a question was raised: ‘What must Chase have on race day?’
To this, Alan throws the first stone with his answer: “His Helmet.” A confident yet spontaneous answer to the ambiguous question, given the no-brainer importance of a helmet for a high-speed sport like NASCAR.
The 2020 NASCAR Cup Series champion, chimes in with exasperation and amusement, and said: “HANS. Where was it? Was it HANS? Should we tell that story?”, added amusingly. HANS device undoubtedly is a crucial device that keeps a driver’s head stable in high-speed crashes.
Chase Elliott’s Crew Chief Publicly Exposes Golden Boy’s Fatal Error
The Duo gave a flashback to Daytona, where Chase Elliott stood on the grid, with the weight of the race day excitement hanging in the air. Alan chips in, a mischievous grin hinting at the punchline, and revealed: “You didn’t have your bus and he’s on the grid to start the race like Daytona. He went straight to the car and I was like, hey, you got your helmet?” And then, the punchline that cracks open the story: “He just turned white.”
In a sequence that could rival any comedy script, the #9 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 driver’s race day hit him like a ton of bricks just as the national anthem wraps up. “I think the anthem was done,” Chase quips as the weight of the missing helmet sinks in. The ensuing exchange between Chase and Alan is priceless, as Alan further queries, “Where is that? Is it Ryan’s bus?” Well, I might have to ask Chase.
But this is not HMS’s No. 9’s first release of a fun trip down memory lane involving their drivers. There’s more.
In a lighthearted game with the Hendrick Motorsports team, NASCAR stars Chase Elliott and Kyle Larson joined forces to poke fun at their teammate William Byron for his notorious habit of forgetting where he parked his car.

The host initiated the game by asking, “[Who is] most likely to forget where they parked their car?” Elliott held up Byron’s name card, and the young driver admitted, “Probably me.” As the room erupted in laughter, Alex Bowman and Kyle Larson chimed in, further solidifying the playful accusation. Byron even recounted a past memory of receiving an award for getting lost in a parking lot in high school, garnering more chuckles from his teammates.
Building strong relationships within a team, as seen with the Hendrick Motorsports team, is vital for success and consistency. This extends to the Motorsports industry, where collaboration and effective communication are paramount. Just as the NASCAR-winningest team thrives on a blend of humor and teamwork, professionals in the industrial kitchen trade must foster a workplace culture that supports innovation, productivity, and collaboration.
