  4. Very emotional – it made me cry. I am a 73 year old widow who also spends weekends watching Nascar. Dale Jr may not be the best driver but to me he is the best because of his attitude and just who he has become. My son was a great sr. fan but I wasn’t in a position to watch many races before 2004 so I became a Dale Jr. fan. I wish him all the best and hope he gets that championship as he deserves it.

    Mavis, You took the words right out of my mouth. I am a widow 67 years. I love NASCAR with Dale Jr. Better years are coming.

    This was a wonderful video, it brought a tear
    to my eye. He is such a fine young man and he
    loved his father dearly. They would have made a
    great team, if his dad had lived. I feel sure of that. I am one of Jr’s most loyal fans. I
    am anxious to see him win more races in 2009 I enjoyed the video very much I hope you make more.

  24. Excellent video, music, and the cast was fabulous.

    [Reply]

    Very good video,enjoyed it very much.Its very hard to follow a father’s footsteps.Especially if your name is Dale Jr. He lost his daddy just when he needed him the most.Sometimes hard to do.But me must carry on and be his own man.And he doing that very well.

  38. THERE ARE NO WORDS TO EXPRESS HOW GREAT I THINK THIS VIDEO IS, AND TO ADD THE MUSIC, I THINK TANYA TUCKER, IS THE TOPPING TO IT ALL. IT SHOWS THE GRIEF THAT WE “EARNHARDT” FANS, ALONG WITH JR. AND KELLEY HAVE FELT EVER SINCE THE GREAT ONE PASSED AWAY. I CRIED ALL THE WAY THRU THE VIDEO AND WILL WATCH IT MANY, MANY TIMES. LOVE TO JUNIOR, KELLEY AND THE FAMILY!!!!!

  44. Fabulous song and video. It brought me to tears as I think so often all that Dale, Jr. has been thru. He is my favorite driver and I only wish him the success he deserves! I am 70 yrs. old and an avid NASCAR fan, only my TV only as we can’t get to the races. Thanks for such a beautiful song and video. I wish that I could purchase it to keep forever!

  46. What a beautiful tribute to both Dale Jr. and his dad. It brought tears to my eyes. The words of the song are so approptiate, almost as if it had been written for the video.

  52. I loved this video!! I started to cry when I seen sr and I am sure that Jr does too. I was not a sr,but I am a HUGE jr fan. I don’t miss a race or anything on TV about him. I was very upset this year that he didn’t do good as I thought he would,but things will be better in 2009 I have faith in Jr.. Just keep up the good work.The song you picked for this couldn’t have been any better. Great job on this I hope to see more very soon..WIN JR WIN you are the man:)

  56. Just watched your winning video and can understand why it won. I certainly shed a few tears and it brought back many memories. I am a 68 year old grandmother and I love NASCAR. I try to never miss a race. Just have to say that Dale Jr. is my favorite, a very handsome and polite young man and certainly an outstanding credit to the sport of NASCAR.
    Watch out in 2009 all you other racers, Dale Jr. is coming to the front where he belongs.

  58. What an awesome video. Being a Senior fan as well as a Junior fan it sure touched my heart. Not only did I have goose bumps, but I also had tears in my eyes. It brought back a whole lot of memories and the song couldn’t of been better. Great job! One thing is for sure, we always know that Senior is riding with Junior in every race he runs. Thank you for sharing.

    [Reply]

    Wow, what a video.I’m going to agree with PJ on this one. He is the man. I think the song by Tanya, really said it all. I sat here watching it and tears ran down my cheeks. This man, I was going to call him a boy, but he has well past that phrase, he is going to take this next year by storm. You just watch and see.
