There’s something beautiful about seeing those grandstands completely packed

Its was on Fathers day he won this and it was his first win in 76 races. His father Dale Sr had a total of 76 wins in his career. Isnt that odd?

I was 10 and i saw this live sadley i didnt see his 2012 win live cause i was at camp

i almost cried! I miss when Jr won races! :( hope he gets one soon!

Remember this clear as day. Eating dinner at my grandparents house(RIP), with my family and we had this on the tiny tv in the dining room. I remember thinking I couldn't remember the last time Junior won, and then when that caution came out dad and I were Soo happy he finally won again.

Awesome! I spotted myself and my sister in Victory Lane at the 5:18 mark of this video. :) This was a day that I'll never forget!

dale jr is the man jr. nation freaking rocks i am so freaking happy he won he deserved it

I missed this race because i was at STL Cardinals Baseball game with my father and grandfather.... we won that day but the stadium scoreboard show that Dale Jr won the Michigan race and half of stadium cheered!

Dale Jr did it again today, Way to go Dale jr. Your dad would be proud. I hope Dale Jr wins the championship this year, he deserves it.

Enough said Dale Jr! fathers day! Awesome!

You know, it's got to be so damn frustrating for Jr. He has come so freaking close to a win, but just gets that bad luck and it all goes downhill. Examples: Martinsville, Charlotte, and Kansas. All of those times, I swear to god he was gonna win. Just can't get that break. Good luck in 2012 Jr. You're going to need it.

LOVE DALE JR WITH ALL MY HEART!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was at this race. Never have I ever felt the stands shaking like they were when he came by on that last lap. Amazing atmosphere.

"They can write what they want.....but we won one"........Dale speaks the truth!!

I Am VERY Happy To Say That I Was There When He Won.

“And that’s junior’s poo on the wall” -captions

I had just come back from my third deployment in the Middle East the day before and this was my only thing I wanted to do was watch him win and he did

June 19: Father's Day and my grandfather's 88th birthday. Not sure if he's gonna make it, his health is so poor, but it'd be awesome to see Jr win!

Notice how fast the caution came out, If it was anyone else leading they would be flipping out saying NO CAUTION NO CAUTION, and let them race as long as the wreck wasn't on the track. But the sport needed a win from Junior, and it needs it now too, I wish he would win again.

Man, that was a good win for Dale jr. back in 2008, but he hasn't won since then.

Dales last Win with his Cousin Tony

gotta love junior!!! He should win some race next year :)

Even after 9 years I still can not get used to Dale Jr not driving the #8 Bud car

I was there that was Awesome !!!

Dale Jr!!!! He's amazing.

LETS GO DALE JR !!!

I go to the first Michigan race every year, this one was exciting by far.

I was at this race and it's the only time I've seen Jr win in person

Iove. Dale

Jr's been struggling the last 2 years but he started this year off good. If he didn't wreck at Daytona the 11th at Bristol would most likely be his worst finish of the year. He isn't quite good yet to win on another track besides Daytona or 'Dega but if he continues to improve he might end up in victory lane with a few breaks

Awesome

dale jr is awsome because his dad was famous and so is he today.and he finished 11 in points so thats bad but he had a good car all year and in the pratice.

Was a great finish. Would love to see Jr back in victory lane. If this was a double file restart tho i doubt he woulda won this

and then they said mark martin right after and i was relieved

Omg this was 7 years ago

michael waltrip brought that last caution on purpose so that jr could win. thats a good thing. this 2011 season has been great for jr. i think he can win a race this year or two if he has the car to do it.

I was on the edge of my seat watching this live when i heard they said the 8 car was out of fuel i thought he meant Jr cause i was not used to Jr out of the 8 car

I hope he wins soon... pretty cool my track was his last win though

Can't help but wonder if Jr and Jr would've stayed together what would happen

I was at Cardinals baseball game and during the game, the scoreboard pop up and it said that Dale Jr. had won the race. I was like "are u serious?"

Lol no not really! I was pulling for Stewart (as I do every year lol) but I knew he didn't have a long run car. I was praying for a caution, but it was nice to see Jr. win in the Batman car this time!

Dale Junior has two wins since 5/6/2006 36 races a year.... Been with Hendrick Motorsports since 2008. Since 1994, Hendrick has won 4 Daytona 500's, 7 Brickyard 400's, over 6 Coke 600's, and most of all 8 Sprint Cup Championships What I'm saying is that Dale Jr. is the male-equivelent of Danica Patrick...

Dale Jr Wins today!!! I'm a Biffle fan but it Is about time Jr Wins!!!!!!!!

HELL YEAH

he gets REAL points none the less...

He Did It

@TheGoaltender94 He signed a 5 year contract with HMS and his 1st season with them was 2008. 2012 is the last year of the contract. He moved to HMS for sole purpose to win a Sprint Cup title, but I felt like he could've done that with DEI. If he moves to MWR that would be a big boost for that organization because they have an experienced driver who can win races.

Jr had skill on that restart to win this race but he threw that skill out the door at lowes this year GASING IT TOO MUCH to win it and had a straight away not enough. Had he NOT gunned it for a whole lap on that restart he'd of had enough and of been another first time lowes winner. He had that win sealed before the caution after but oh well. Hes still a awesome driver!

AND ANOTHER LEFT OH WAIT ANOTHER LEFT, ANOTHER LEFT ANOTHER LEFT, ANOTHER LEFTANOTHER LEFT, ANOTHER LEFTANOTHER LEFT, ANOTHER LEFTANOTHER LEFT, ANOTHER LEFT THIS IS SO FUN TO WATCH GO SHIT A CRASH AD CENTRAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

he needs to win at daytona

i remember how nervous i was watching this i had to buy fake nails to chew on cus i had already chewed mine off haha

well you gotta give it to him for having that Earnhardt name

I'm going to MIS on Sunday and I have 2 pit passes.

Best fathers day

Man looking back i think Jr and Rick Hendrick had a good pairing i mean look at the similarities Jr lost a father (Dale Sr.) And Rick lost a son (Ricky)

i broke my wrist on that day. i felt sad that i missed that race. :(

@gottalovethemets I'd say maybe at least maybe 2 or more wins.

I'm not crying or anything. Were did you get that I was crying?

heres to a win in 2010! Yeah!

@saintsrulz Oh, add Jamie McMurray to that list...puzzling, two wins last year, including the Daytona 500..but people still wanna write him off, oddly..

@racefan0051 Wooh! first three races are pro. 1 pole, 2 top tens and he has always been amazing at Bristol!

Not only that, but Jr. is also getting "left-overs" from Hendrick...

@SlayerPayback Put another way, there is a new field of 12 drivers. And in that field of 12 drivers with the 2000 to 2012 from-the-start points set up, Dale Jr is pretty close to LAST place in said field.

so now you have to wait 4 more years for him to win agian lol

@PchanStitch Yeah cus hes talented.

19 now :D

I had tickets to go to a Joliet race a while back didnt go and he won... had tickets to this race didnt go.. and he won. AHHH

@Carfire45 what about the Daytona 500 two years ago? He took out half the field singlehandedly due to his own negligence Although that did secure a victory for Matt Kenseth whom im also a fan of so happy days

What nobody talks about is that Dale Jr passed the Pace car under caution to keep his momentum for fuel milage which is illegal and should have resulted in forfeiture (see the Vickers interview about this). Obviously NASCAR would never punish the good ole boy Dale Jr.

@TheGowbeast Not to mention he was only IN the chase due to the new wild card system. He finished the regular season in 12th. He'd be a no-go any other season. So he only, ONLY got 7th in points thanks to the reset and wild card system.

If he didn't win this, he would have over a 200- race winless streak

I love how webers like the 8 car is out of fuel...mark martin 😂😂

No he's not, at Martinsville, he had the same setup as Gordon. Hendricks doesnt have left-overs, not an excuse for not being able to execute

Ill be at MIS next sunday and jr gonna win it!!!

FUCK YEA!!!!!!!!

2nd in points and 19 wins;)

when i was watching this, i wasnt paying attention for a second so when i hear the 8 car out of gas, i freaked out, old habits die hard i guess

@SlayerPayback You keep on saying '8th in points', but are oblivious to the fact that NASCAR evened the playing field after the last regular season race (where Dale Jr was barely hanging on). Suddenly, there was only 12 points dividing the driver in the first place slot from the driver in the 12th place slot. So, they pretty much started from scratch, which means an 8th place is actually pretty bad. Compare standings after the races...the points went to 2012 (1st) to 2000 (12th.)

Anyone else find it ironic that the 8 car ran out of fuel just before he won?

@saintsrulz Know who also still gets top tens and top fives? Bobby Labonte. Mark Martin. Kasey Khane. Brian Vickers. Yet, many consider them no longer factors and say they should retire, heck, Martin even got five wins a couple years ago. Why's Dale Jr still a factor and not them? By the way, if we've gotten to the point when a top 15 is something to boast..that's just sad.

yeah:(

I just have to laugh at the irony that, pretty much right before he won his first race in his new car, his old car ran out of fuel.

As long as he stays with hendrick he will only be pawn in ricks game. Guess Jr is comfortable with that.

Michigan 2008- Junior wins by fuel....76 winless streak Coke 600-2011- Junior loses by fuel....105+ winless streak lets hope 'Dega he wins it

And that's only because he got turned on the last lap. He would've had a 13th place finish and would've maintained 2nd in points.

@Darkdragonic When is his contract up?

yes that should be in consideration..........because i think the eury jr dale jr combo isnt working.
