The Dale Jr. Download

2h ago

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. Real fans wear Dirty Mo.

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?
