Dale Jr. wins in his first race with hendrick motorsports. Hope it's gonna be a good year for Jr. and his new 88 team.. Lord knows he needs a better one than last year.. GL Dale..

 

That really was a great race, Im really happy for Jr he needed that win.

One thing that was interesting.. Did you notice after Jeff got shuffled out with 3 to go (when Sorenson hit the outside wall) how he was able to shoot straight back to the front in the middle lane no less?! That was pretty dang amazing if you ask me! Would have loved to see what would have happened with one more lap.

Looks like it is going to be a great season, Im really impressed with the new car.

 

It's about time. Has he ever gotten first place before. He is one of the biggest names in racing, but yet hardly wins. Good for him though

 

Never gotten first place before? Not sure I understand what you mean? He's won 17 Cup races and two Busch championships. Im not a big Jr. fan, but it's hard to say he's never won..

 

Sorry, there was some sarcasm in there. I just don't really follow Nascar much, but I really didn't think he that many wins for being a big name. I thought he was kinda like the Dan Marino of Nascar or something.
