New Dale Earnhardt Jr Billboard In Texas

Looks like Bruton Smith, Eddie Gossage and the staff at Texas Motor Speedway are at it again!
Last spring they put up a billboard similar to this to promote the Samsung 500. Only that billboard read: Reason # 88 — Stepmom!
After complaints from Kelley Earnhardt Elledge, Dale Jr’s sister, that billboard was removed and replaced with one reading Reason #88 — New Car Smell!
Jimmie Johnson, Tony Stewart and Jeff Gordon were also victims of the Texas marketing department. I can’t wait to see what else The guys in Texas come up with this time.

Dale Jr. already has a business look about him, he is going to be both successful in racing and his ownership of his 2 race cars. He certainly made believers of people that he was able to pull off the things he has done to start his own racing team

I commend Kelley for having that one taken down. The relationship Dale and Kelley have with Teresa is their business and they don’t want anyone slammin’ her, it’s rude!!

I can’t help but think that NASCAR has a hand in this. They wanted Toyota’s money badly and it seems would do anything to get it and keep it. They seem afraid to lean on Gibbs Racing like they do everyone else. Maybe with this latest cheating exposed in Nationwide, things will change. It doesn’t take a genius to know that Busch isn’t that good a driver. I think NASCAR’s aim is being diverted……….instead of loving Busch, we hate him and are leaving because of him.

First of all, I appreciate a great racer like Kyle Busch because he knows how to get it done and win races. All the drivers would do what he does IF THEY ONLY KNEW HOW!!! Kyle’s crew knows better and would NEVER do to their driver what Denny Hamlin’s pit crew do to him. Kyle would destroy Denny’s crew if they ever worked for him. Come on Joe Gibbs…….switch the crews between Denny Hamlin and Kyle Busch.
My favorite driver is Dale Jr., but he is getting waaaay to laid back when it comes to winning races…….but, he’s still my #1.
Why can’t Gibb’s racing do something for poor Denny Hamlin? Denny is a “top-notch driver” with a crappy crew. I now strongly dislike Joe Gibbs because of the damage he is letting take place against Denny Hamlin. Joe Gibbs does whatever pleases Joe Gibbs……I said that when he was our Redskin coach, and sticking to it. Denny should go with Stewart-Haas racing next year; I sincerely believe they will find a great crew for Denny. -God bless Denny Hamlin-

I think that Dale Jr is doing a awesome job, snd that people need to lay off, from making smart behind comments about his racing. No matter what I’m a Dale Jr. fan he is getting the job done.
