General Discussion » What is really wrong with Dale Jr
Only JR knows. He's always said he does not like the COT car. And I think that is stuck in his head. Eventually he will get it and accept it. ( I HOPE ).

Two-time NASCAR Cup champion Terry Labonte has been added to the list of drivers scheduled to participate in the M&M's NASCAR Night of Stars at I-55 Raceway in Pevely, Mo., Wednesday.
Labonte will join other familiar names in racing UMP Modifieds at the one-third mile, high-banked track.
Other additions to the race are Labonte's son, Justin Labonte, Nationwide Series driver Steve Wallace and Sprint Cup driver Dave Blaney.
Two-time Cup champion Tony Stewart, I-55 co-owner and Cup veteran Ken Schrader, NASCAR Camping World Series driver and former AMA Supercross champion Ricky Carmichael and Craftsman Truck Series drivers Ron Hornaday, Dennis Setzer and Brendan Gaughan are also scheduled to race.
“Having Terry here for the first time is a really neat deal,” Schrader said. “Plus, it’ll be interesting to see Ricky [Carmichael] race four wheels on dirt instead of two wheels. It’s going to be a lot of fun.”
Proceeds from the event will benefit the Special Olympics.
Mentioned Drivers: Dave Blaney

Jul 18, 2008 at 11:58 PMSchrader works to have a variety of drivers visit - some of those racing at Eldora did their first driving on dirt at Pevely. Dale Junior has been three times - only once to race; DEI restricted him from driving the other two times. So he flagged the one and worked the autograph session for the other. It's going to be fun and I already have my tickets. Haven't missed one yet.
