Default Dale Jr. Gets a New Crew Chief At Dover

19th in points and a 40th place finish at Lowes Motor Speedway; Rick Henderick felt it was time for a change.

The new changes to the Dover Delaware track that NASCAR was hoping to be the big news for the week, has been over shadowed by replacing Dale Earnhardt Jar’s crew chief and cousin Tony Eury Jr.

Cousin or not stock car racing is big business, and Rick Henderick felt it was time to change up the crew chief and other key members of the team in an effort to get Jr. running fast again.

Starting at this week’s Autism Speaks 400 in Dover Delaware, Jr.s crew chief for this week will be Brian Whitesell; Lance Mc Grew will then take over on an interim basis while Rick Henderick figures out a long term solution.

Earnhardt is a bigtime fan favorite. NASCAR wants him running near the front.

My first Daytona was 80 or 81. I remember buying great seats at the ticket booth the day of the race. By the 90s it got so big it became a real pain in the ass and I stopped going. A few years ago I got free tix for the Earnhardt granstands. It still ended up being a $300 day for me. ugh.

Atlanta is a good track to go see them. Very fast and not so big.

I'll hit it at some point. I live 45 minutes from Louden so we go there for both races. I'd love to fly out to Dega for a race.

You do have to take notice that the only F1 drivers switching are the shitty ones. Might have something to do with their performance in other motorsports as well. Just sayin.
