Last night I had tears rolling down my cheeks when Austin Dillon took the checkered flag at Charlotte. The last time we saw the 3 car in Cup Series victory lane, Dale Earnhardt was behind the wheel. I still miss that mustached grin and hard driving style. The Intimidator was my driver, and I was rabidly passionate about NASCAR racing. Now I casually watch, and cheer mostly for Dale Jr., but it's not the same.
I
guess I am happy for Richard Childress to finally get another win with that
car, but I secretly hoped that would never happen. Life goes on,
things change, but to me the 3 car will always belong to Dale
Earnhardt.
